1. Hold the potato at one end and scrape the peeler along the skin of the potato, starting about halfway down the length of the potato.
2. Flip the potato and peel the other end.
3. To rid the potato of the eyes, you can either use the notch at the end of the peeler to dig them out or continue to peel over the eyes until they are gone.
4. Continue to peel through the under layer of green. This is oxalic acid and sometimes doesn't get cooked out all the way if left on the potato.
5. Scrape peelings into the trash can.
