The flesh is a distinctive bright yellow to golden color that stays yellow after cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThey were developed in the 1960s at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada, by Garnet “Gary” Johnston (with Geoff Rowberry) and released commercially around 1980. The name nods to the Yukon River \/ Klondike Gold Rush region and the potato’s golden flesh. The parentage includes a North American white potato (Norgleam) crossed with yellow-fleshed genetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"auto\"\u003eFlavor and Texture\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThey sit in a useful middle ground between waxy potatoes (like reds) and high-starch ones (like russets). The texture is moist, creamy, and dense—firm enough to hold shape in many dishes yet soft enough for smooth mashed potatoes. The flavor is richer and more buttery than most white potatoes, with a mild sweetness and earthiness. Many cooks find they need less added butter or cream because of this natural quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"auto\"\u003eCulinary Uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eYukon Golds are true all-purpose potatoes.
