I just tried this with some large(not huge or anything) Yukons and it was a total waste. I didn’t over cook them. They were slightly underdone because I was going to try them in stew. But the skins did not come off cleanly and I lost a fair amount of potato that was stuck to the skin. (They were not in any way still raw). I doubt I’ll do this again. Maybe it will work for others though.

Great idea! Cook how long? Are the potatoes fully cooked or basically blanched once the process is completed?

Dear DaveHax you mean how to peel an boiled potato

[jeanjones]

I have always done this when making potato salad with small new potatoes. I then put the peeled potato into an egg slicer and the results look good in a salad. Be aware though, not all types of potato shed their skins so readily... some skins tend to cling to the potato and you end up tearing off the skin bit by tedious bit!

That's only quick if you have a lot of potatoes to cook. What if I just want to make french fries?

One thing to clarify here. The potatoes shouldn't be boiled for long time at first. It should be just long enough to soften the skin and underneath surface. I assume this should take about 3-5 min in boiling water. Note that the rest of the potato is still pretty raw and hard. Yet, this might not be perfect for fried chips.

You could do a similar technique to peel tomatoes by cutting a skin-deep cross 'X' at the bottom of the tomatoes, drop them n boiling water for 1-2 min then transfer them into cold water. Then you can easily and quickly peel the skin off.

If you master the technique, you should be able to peel a very thin skin without any tomato pulp lost.

Unless you're making mashed potatoes, you really don't need to peel them. But definitely wash them.
