Another wacky Japanese film shows you how to peel a potato the easy way!

Similar to the speed T-shirt folding video you may have seen, this video demonstrates a technique you can use to peel potatoes faster than ever before! Of course, the odd pops, squeaks, and other sound effects are a bonus and give the video a bit of humor. Educational and entertaining all at once - now you know why you come to this site!

I'm sure that people familiar with blanching and other forms of food preparation for canning and storage will already know of this technique. I wish that I could read or understand the Japanese as it would be nice to know how long it was in the boiling water (enough to cook it or just a few seconds). I'm guessing that it was long enough to cook as the potato appears fairly soft after the skin is removed. Perhaps Alton Brown of Good Eats will swing-by and comment...
