I peel regular sized carrots. I also peel potatoes for making boiled or mashed ones, for baked, I don't peel potatoes. When I make roast potatoes, and cut them in to wedges, I don't always peel them either.

Do you peel your regular sized carrots or leave them unpeeled? When he was alive, my friend Howard never peeled his carrots, but cooked them unpeeled. Red potatoes, I cook them with the skin on. I hardly buy russet potatoes anymore. The toughest thing to peel is ginger root because it ots irregular shape. I find the best way to do it is with the mandoline on the thinnest setting. Still, some spots are hard to get at with a regular potato peeler. I do the best I can. I know baby carrots are already peeled and ready to go. I got some regular-sized carrots for a change and they are slender, so when I take the peel off, there is hardly enough carrot to taste. I hope I didn't open a can of worms. Best, Marie _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
