We use a brush to clean and we peel if the recipe calls for it.
I loathe peeling potatoes.

I almost always peel potatoes, I don't like the skins. For baking potatoes, I scrub them with a brush and water.

Someone brought baked potatoes to our retirement group lunch. She had about 20 potatoes. She put them on the top rack of her dishwasher and ran them through the "rinse and hold" cycle--no soap. Then she put them in 2 9x 12 baking pans, covered with foil and baked at 400 until soft. They turned out very well.

Just with my hand and water.
I eat the skin.

I clean them under running water with a vegetable brush. I rarely peel potatoes unless a recipe specifically calls for me to do so. This. I will peel them if I'm doing mashed but that's the only time I can think of. I don't think I'd ever use dish soap to clean food. I know a lot of people use veggie washes. I also don't wash my chicken

I just can’t imagine doing it!

I also don't wash my chicken I have never used dish soap to clean the actual food but I’ve always had a habit of washing any cans before opening them and actually had a funny thread about that topic quite some time back. I used to rinse chicken thoroughly but the general consensus now is that you should not, so I’ve stopped.

The only thing I do with chicken is pat off some of the extra juices with a paper towel. I must have missed the 'chicken washing' memo.

I was floored but come to find out, quite a few people do that if TT is to be believed. You can just drink the bleach with koolaid alongside the chicken, or add it to the sauce. Seriously, if I want peeled potatoes I peel them by rubbing the cooked potatoes with a clean towel. Works great and it feels good on my achy joints, lol.

Vegetable brush under running water. No soap, in case it gets stuck in the peel and tastes.

LOL, you know me, girlfriend!😆🥰 You may have noticed my absence on this thread prior to now. On any of these kind of threads, I have a rule. It's called the WWGD Rule (What Would Gar Do). If you do more than I would, then I don't bother commenting. In this case you said you rinse the potatoes, which I don't even do (unless I buy brushed potatoes instead of washed potatoes).

We normally spot on with matching responses 😁 Now I know why you hadn’t commented though 😁
