Saw this on youtube... looks easy enough, although I probably wouldn't do it for a small number of potatoes. I frequently leave my skins on depending on the type of potatoes. I was thinking of trying this for when I have to make a monster batch of potato salad for the Fourth of July gathering.

Anyone try this before or have another method?
uh,
I a) use a pressure cooker, b) have mostly gone "country". I hardly ever peel mine anymore, they are just as good and healthier! Or I use the peeler. For 2 ppl, it's not that many potatoes.
Or I let them cool down depending on the recipe.
Wow, that seems like a lot of wasted energy, actually.
I rarely peel my potatoes (the skin is the best part!) but if I do need to, my plan is to use my simple, hand-crank apple peeling machine. It's so fast for apples that I'm sure I could peel an entire pot of potatoes faster than it would take to get that water to a boil. ;)
GLC, I LOVE that idea. I'm trying to remember if I can do it without coring the potato, too?

On mine, you can. You just loosen the corer dohicky (that's a techinical term, you know ;)) and spin it down so that you aren't pushing the potato over it as you peel.
Marianne's looking pretty good for her age! must be the Idaho potatoes...
I'm partial to this one:
