Like, I get comments from people telling me it’s weird I always try to peel potatoes like I am trying to make the worlds longest 1-piece potato peel. To me it feels way for efficient and fun to continu down a potato in 1 peel, while circling around it, instead of randomly scraping a hundred different pieces of peel off and having to reintroduce the cutter knife to the potato for every piece.
Bucket of water with potatoes and a drill with a toilet brush for a drill bit.
Given that the skin has up to 12 times the nutrients of the entire potato it covers I personally stopped peeling my potatoes in most situations. It also adds a great crispy texture when you’re roasting or frying. With that said, you do you when peeling. If it’s cathartic to peel it all in one piece go for it. Or you can cut the potato in half and simply use a knife to trim the skin off like a sweet potato.
Worth mentioning that different types of potatoes have more and less pleasant skins to eat, so it depends
Should be worth noting that the skin of potatoes contains toxins.
