Saw on Pinterest- put potatoes in boiling water for 10 minutes, then plunge into ice water for 10 minutes, then just rub the skins off.

[QUOTE=Roberta;7974623]I no longer peel potatoes at all. I just scrub them down really good, cut them up into chunks and boil. The skin is the healthiest part of the potato. That's my story and I'm sticking to it :-)[/QUOHave done this for years too

General note to readers: Please dont feed raw potato peelings to chickens. It is one of the few foods they cannot digest. Cooked ones, like you do, are ok.
