Peel. I also salt them and let them sit so alot of the water is drawn out. This is the way my father always does them.

It is also scientifically proven that some skin helps digestion....so those pretty little rows (which is what I do too) is medicinal tooChat Icon

Re: Very important scientific question

NEVER peel....

to me, too time consuming and also the skin is so thin to me, it's not that noticeable when you eat it.
