Combine eggs and egg yolks; beat at high speed of electric mixer until well blended. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating at medium speed. Add lemon rind and lemon juice, and beat well. Fold in potato starch.

Beat egg whites (at room temperature) at high speed until stiff peaks form; fold into batter. Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan with removable bottom.
