What is the difference in a Yukon potato and a pei potato?
If I understand your question correctly, you are asking what the difference is between a PEI potato and a Yukon Gold potato. A PEI (Prince Edward Island) potato refers not to a potato varietal, but to the place where it is grown. The place where a vegetable is grown, the climactic conditions, the minerals in the soil, call all impact the ultimate taste of a crop. Hatch chilis are famous, and are rumored to be the best in the world, thanks to their unique growing conditions. Yukon Gold potatoes, at least in the current usage, don't refer so much to potatoes which are grown in the Yukon, but rather to a potato varietal. Yukon Golds are a waxy potato, they have a yellow skin and a little bit of a buttery taste, and they are far less starchy than a russet potato.
