The Onaway potato is a hefty and rough looking potato with a pale burlap-colored skin and creamy yellow firm, succulent and starchy flesh. When cooked it becomes buttery in flavor and its flesh maintains its succulence.
Onoway potatoes are best suited to boiling and baking and are not considered an optimal fryer potato.
The first Onaway potato seedling was planted on Aroostook Farm in Presque Isle county, Maine under the name, Seedling B67-17. It was sent to Michigan for research and development by the National Potato Breeding Program, Crop Research Division and was introduced to the commercial market in 1956. Its given name derives from the town of Onaway, a once well-established lumbering area in the farming community of Presque Isle County, Michigan.
