Director Easy Potato Peeling Tip: Save Time & Make Perfect Potato Salad

In summary, the easy potato peeling tip involves boiling the potatoes with the skin on and then dunking them in ice water, making the skin easy to peel off. This tip works for all types of potatoes and is also great for making mashed potatoes. The boiling time will vary, but generally takes 15-20 minutes for medium-sized potatoes. Boiling potatoes with the skin on does not cause them to lose nutrients and actually adds extra fiber and nutrients to your dish.

She said to boil it for 15 minutes and move around in the ice water for about 10 seconds. VERY COOL!
