"Skinning" Spuds not Peeling
Saw this method and a friend says it works and is very, very quick.
Cut round and just through the skin at the centre of a potatoes very shallowly, put in saucepan pour over boiling water and allow to cook. Once cooked remove from pan, drain hot water into another pan, drop cooked spuds into iced water so cool enough to handle and "twist and peel off skin. Can dump "peeled" spuds back into hot water and bring back to boil if needing them very hot for mashing etc.
Bit like skinning tomatoes and very easy, especially if like me hate peeling potatoes
Seggie. Ta, Vivity. I'll try that. The other day, with nothing to do (well, nothing I wanted to do), I thought I'll peel the avocadoes by hand. Lovely (I hope) vitamins just under the skin and from now on, I'll keep doing this. Adore avocadoes, cheese and gherkins on grain bread.
