Peeling a potato

This is not, in my opinion, a time saving item. It is, however, interesting. This is from the Idaho Potato Growers.

NEED:
Washed potatoes - unpeeled.
In a large pot boil enough water to cover the potatoes you are going to use.
Score, around the center of each potatoe and place in the boiling water for 15 minutes.
Remove and submerge in ice water until cool enough to handle. Place fingers on both sides of the scored area and gently pull. The skin will slide right off.
I did try this and it worked great.
Downfall is the potato is still not quite done so must return to the boiling water to finish or can be diced and fried.

Hope you find this interesting and useful.
