Do they require slightly

Do they require slightly longer cooking??? They taste kind of buttery to me....I like them a lot. My absolute favorite potatoes, though, are fingerlings.

OMG! Those are really beautiful! They are big for Yukon Gold potatoes, too. My brother makes mashed potatoes with Yukon Golds. They have a wonderful yummy buttery taste. You have to cook them until they are really soft so they will mash well.

If you have a cold storage place where you can keep those, I'd be tempted to keep them in the root cellar or such place and use them for Thanksgiving. They are delicious.
