Hey...you acted like you did know. I'm always willing to learn but your
solution just backed up what I said...that you can't do it with a microwave.

I was wondering that this morning too. If you take your peel from step 2
and try microwaving it in one of those wraps. ?

Hot Pockets always include those cardboard wraps with foil inside. I eat
those occasionally but never use the included wraps. I'll try a potato peel
in one soon and see how it turns out.

That said, I normally buy red potatoes and they don't have much of a peel at
all. I should try a russet for that experiment.
