Take a bucket and fill it halfway with potatoes. There is no need to wash the fruits - everything will be done at once. Pour in about 2/3 of the water.

    It is healthier to replace a corded drill with a battery-powered one. And don’t ruin the evening for your guests.

      I remember in the army after the cleaning machine we spent half the night picking the eyes with dull table knives from four tubs of potatoes

    This volume of potatoes takes a maximum of 30 minutes to peel.Collecting all the tools, and then also cleaning the eyes, I’m sure it will take the same amount of time, if not more.

    And we tried. And we like it! My husband made a similar attachment on a metal rod and uses a drill to peel young potatoes all the time. We grow the Koroleva Anna variety, the potatoes are smooth, the eyes are not deep, they peel perfectly, there is almost no need to finish finishing them. This device is especially relevant for small and very small potatoes, which you don’t have the patience to peel. And so it goes away, especially fried! Savings, Christmas trees!
