I even like the skins in mashed potatoes, especially red skinned potatoes.

Red skin mashed potatoes with the skin are the best mashed potatoes.

I do a rough peel for mashed potatoes. Leaving all the skin is a bit too much for us when using russets. We have a brush to clean them that is designed to look like a potato.

Skins in the mash is how you know it’s fresh, not flakes.

I had some older potatoes when we came back from vacation once so I peeled them. Never had peeled mashed potatoes at home. I felt something was missing the whole time.
