Okay, so I'm not going to pretend like peeling potatoes the conventional way is so HARD and your poor precious, delicate, manicured hands are not up to the task. I know you know your way around a pela papa, but tell me the task doesn't get tedious when you are making a huge batch of mashed potatoes or potato salad or anything that requires peeled boiled potatoes? It's boring and time consuming! Sure you can make your kids do the peeling, but then you have to listen to their quejas and I don't know about you, but I think food should be prepared with love and not sprinkled with complaints.
That's why I think this video of how to peel potatoes with your bare hands is genius and you will too. Not only that, but when your kids see you doing it all of a sudden they are going to want to get in on the action because who knew peeling potatoes could be so fun and easy?

This potato peeling "trick" is so easy! All you do is boil your potatoes like you normally would, then once they are done you dunk them in an ice bath for about 10 seconds or until they are cool enough to touch and then you use your hands to kind of rub off the skin. It's even easier than it sounds.

I love this tip because it's actually useful and something you would be prone to do. Unlike this other video we've shared with you before of how to peel a whole sack of potatoes in seconds. I mean, it's clever, but the use of a toilet brush grosses me out and like I'm going to bust out a power drill?
