Peeling jacket potatoes is often a laborious affair that many see more as punishment work. But there's a simple way to peel them.

You don't need an expensive kitchen appliance to peel the potatoes, just a sharp knife. Jacket potatoes have a more intense taste and are also more nutritious than boiled potatoes. Due to the shell, fewer vitamins and nutrients pass into the cooking water during the cooking process. Because peeling raw potatoes is much easier, many people still prefer to cook boiled potatoes in salted water.
