why wash if removing peel
please save me from insanity
It became like a sort of prison. Encased in a silver shell, words so full of bleeding need spilled like drops on dry leaves. And all the while laughter prevailed a long way from here. Nowhere land, nowhere time, nowhere space.
I would, but only because when I was a kid my mum told me that potatoes are easier to peel when they're damp. Nothing to do with the dirt. Just one of those weird things, I guss.
I don't really think it matters either way, tbh.
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Make us all feel wonderful. We'll never forget."

I wash them if they look really dirty but other than that, I wash them afterwards.
In all fairness, I never peel potato's but on the odd occasion that I do then, that's how I do it :)

Doing what you love can be the loneliest time of your life
A climbers day starts at the crux, getting out of bed.
Mostly I fill the washing up bowl part way up with water, peel the potatoes in that (because you can rinse the peeler so it peels easier). If the potatoes were really dirty I'd rinse them off after peeling them.
You should come and live at my house. Any peculiarities you think you have with food will soon be abolished when you whitness the madness of my fathers wife!
Washing tatos is fine, washing mushrooms is baaaaaad!

Sounds like my dad, you MUST wash the carrots before and after you peel them even if you bought them pre-washed. He also washes onions which is plain odd.
Personally I hardly wash anything unless its got mud on it, you're going to peel off the dirt and then boil it anyhow right?

That's what I do.
Don't know why, just the way my mum does it.
Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future
that year by year recedes before us.
It eluded us then, but that's no matter - tomorrow we
will run faster, stretch out our arms further...
And one fine morning - So we beat on, boats against the current,
borne back ceaselessly into the past.
