Default Does anyone peel their potatoes the EASY way?

I can't wait to try this:

I've seen that tip before. Tried it once, and it was messy. Could just be me, LOL

I'll stick with my Y shaped peeler with the potatoes sitting in the sink being run under lukewarm water.

EDIT: or better yet - make my hubby do it

Well, she sure made it look easy, didn't she?

But you've got the right idea: let hubby do it!

Is it just me? But in the time it takes to boil the water, find the knife, put knife back find sharper knife, score potato then wait 15 minutes to boil it, then put it on ice (which requires finding another pan or bowl), cool it off enough to peel.....I could have peeled a whole bag!

Ok maybe it's just me. Well I guess it would be easier to call finlady and see if I can borrow her hus....errr potato peeler. LOL I hear she's got a really cool one. it squashes bugs opens jars and reaches stuff on the top shelf!

Hey did you guys ever try the potato peeler glove? I swear it was invented I saw it on TV late one night. seemed like a good idea.

Legzz, I saw the glove peeler on TV too. Someone mentioned it in a forum here and said it wasn't worth the money. *sigh


Hey, when you get done with finlady's potato peeler, send him over to my place, will ya?

I have to admit, most things I see on tv late at night aren't worth the money.

I also find it interesting that the cheese slicer and the potato peeler and the corkscrew that I use were all my grandmother's and therefor probably older than me.

It's funny because prior to stealing these things from my mom's attic I went through at least 5 of each item. It's true what they say...they don't make anything like they used to.

Another no-peel person here. Why waste the time, effort and vitamins? Just cook 'em and eat 'em.
