Do you scrub your spuds?

Always 😊 I've got a soft brush for jacket tatties, gets off the dirt but leaves the skin on.

We just give them a bit of a rinse. Cooking will kill everything else.

Thank god for these replies, thought I was going OCD.

I actually wash mine in washing up liquid - preferably anti bac. I do thoroughly rinse them.

My dirty mind went elsewhere when I read this question

I don’t wash any food, cook everything straight from the package !

Good immunity!

I put spuds I am peeling in a sink with some water. Ones I am not peeling get a wash just in water and a brush (have a nail brush I use for veg)

Nope, straight into cook

For jackets I do what my grandad used to do, give them a quick wash, get some salt on my hands and rub it all over the skin.

I rub the skins (after a scrub) with olive oil and loads of coarse salt as my mother did
