Peel a potato in one step – Lifehacker

Courtesy of a Japanese TV show, learn how to peel a potato in one step.  Well, to be fair, it’s not really one step.  You do this by:

1. Cutting the skin all around the middle of the potato.
2. Boiling the potato.
3. Immersing it in cold water to the count of ten.
4. And then, just pull the skin off.

It’s not quite as radical as folding T-shirts, but it’s kind of cute.
