>wash potato>peel off the part you just washed and throw it awaywho the fuck came up with this bullshit?
>>21637756I just eat the skin. Why are you peeling
>>21637760Probably because he's from a civilised country.
>>21637756Guess what dumbass you wash it so it doesn't get on your hands and contaminate your peeled potato.Hope you wash your hands after peeling onions too.
>>21637814>Hope you wash your hands after peeling onions too.Well I will now. Also green onions can have silt trapped inside them just like leeks so I rinse them inside and out too.
>>21637756>>21637814You wash them to get the sand off so it doesn't dull your peeler.
>>21637756I wash potatoes after peeling them
>>21637777The skin has good nutrients and it makes for a good textural contrast.
>>21637756I don't wash them first if I'm going to peel them.but yeah, eating potatoes with the skin on is totally fine.
>peeling potatoesI almost always leave the skin on
lol he peels his tomato
>>21637913>good nutrientsLike solanin?
>>21637756imagine being so retarded that you worry about things like this.
>>21637756Good point. I was thinking the same thing recently.
>>21637978not op but it's natural to wonder why you're being told contradictory things. like when you make okayudon why do you go through the trouble of frying up a nice crispy panko covered pork chop if you're just going to dump a bunch of egg and sauce on top of it?
>>21637756You did because you're retarded. You should peel them before you wash them.
>>21637913Nice third world cope
Peeling potatoes is retarded. The only people who do it were those fag kids who couldn't eat a sandwich unless the crust was cut off, and they live in fear of the crust pieces on the ends of bread loaves (even though those are the slices with the most flavor and best texture LMAO)
>>21637756It's hard to wash the mud of the peeled potato because it's porous you dickhead.
>>21638282>copeYou do not know what that word means
>>21638282>>21637777nice quads but also fuck off potato skins are fantastic. it's retarded to peal them and im not poor or third world
>>21637756I throw away the potato and eat the skin
>>21637756>circumcising your potatoes
>>21637756Mashed potatoes are best if you leave the skin intact
>>21637756low IQYou wash the potato before because it's covered in dirt and you'll have dry dust going everywhere. You don't really wash it, you put the potatoes in water so the dirt settles in a bowl instead of going all over your clothes, the floor, up your nose etc.After you peel the potato you rinse it to wash off mud so you don't eat dirt.
>>21637913>good nutrientsYeah, like solanin and chaconin. Yum.The skin is the defensive barrier for the tato against the attacks from the dirt. As such it is filled with pesticides and antibiotic substances.The dose makes the poison, but the skin is the least nutritous part of the potato.
>>21637913mmm pesticides
>>21638729Freeze the peels and use them for "stock" like all the retards here do.
I only peel if texture matters>>21638827https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/foods/potatoes#plant-compoundsThis normalfag site flatly refutes your last point.
>>21638827That's where the fiber and other nutrients are. Fiber isn't poison, it would make for a good change from your fast food dogshit diet. As other anon said, skin on or skin off is a choice of texture in the end depending on the dish.
>>21638282>>21638801>covered in dirtPotatoes are sold clean in civilized countries, LaGenius.
>>21638375the crust protects the bread: it's contaminated by the chemicals and dust from the bakery factory. same logical for why you shouldn't eat the first and last slices of your bread loaf, it's just common sense really
>>21639010the heat of crust protects the bread
