================================================== =====

Yukon Gold are really good; not as "waxy" as round reds or as flaky as
russets or Idaho bakers. The best for roasting, IMHO however, are new
small thin skinned red ones. Don't peel all the way - just a strip from
around the middle or halve them. Toss in melted butter or olive oil and
roast in a hot oven.
