What about someone who has made it with the skin on but still prefers it without? Hah, got you there. 

You haven’t

I'm a flexible guy, I'd be quite happy to give mash with skins a whirl.  I do have a couple of queries, though:-

 

1.  How big are the pieces of skin?  Are we talking big rinds of skin mixed in with the mash?  Or does the skin get mashed too, reducing it to smaller bits?

 

2. Is this method practiced in restaurants?  Surely they know best. 

 

Warm regards,

Some posters on here are given epicurean immunity because it is obvious they couldn't tell a parsnip from a pear tree.

 

You however, are better than this.

Haha, boil the spuds until softish then throw into a colander and shake.

Place on roasting tray

Add a goodly dusting of salt & pepper, some fine vegetable oil and plenty of rosemary and thyme

Roast until smell wafts through house and skin crispy

Prepare gravy, pour wine and feast on wondrous Roast

Just do the spuds as you would normally but don't peel the skin off. Its not hard. 

 

Trust me you won't look back. 

 

Bunch of mugs wasting your time peeling spuds and missing out on all the goodness to boot. Some of you lot really are fucking shite. 

[Bjornebye]

Eat the skin to capture all the natural nutrition of a russet potato. The potato skin has more nutrients than the interior of the potato. It has lots of fiber, about half of a medium potato's fiber is from the skin

Disappointing answer lacking in detail and failing to address the issues raised.

Well if you’re not doing it for fibre then you must be doing it for flavour. Against the advice and expertise of every chef on the planet 

 

Peel your potatoes you lazy cunt

Two gala apples a day (skin on) and two slices of whole grain bread (usually a two rasher or four stripey bacon with one whole vine on tomato) and you will have champion turds.

Try with fingerling potatoes. 

 

I rarely do this because I'll easily demolish a kilo of the roasted wonders.

Russet are for the masses.

I fucking love it when antibeaner weirdos come out with things like skin-on mash. Nothing will ever, ever beat Rem’s pink pizza with a fungal infection, but skin-on mash is at least a bit funny.
