preparing new potatoes

[happy_face]

I love new potatoes but hate having to scrape them. Some new potatoes aren't too bad but some others have really difficult peel to scrape off. I usually get New Jersey Royals. Does anyone now of a good alternative to scraping or an easy way of doing it.
I don't want to boil them with the skin on and then peel as by the time I peel the skin off my potato has gone cold.

Any suggestions much appreciated

Scraping new potatoes removes the outer skin (Flaky on varieties such as Jersey Royals) but leaves the second skin on and therefore the goodness in. This is why scraping and peeling is the best method. The outer skin if not scraped off on has an earthy taste that, in my opinion, ruins the taste. A soft brush makes the job easier particularly on good scrapers. On the more difficult ones its back to the old paring knife and wrist action.

Sorry that should have said scraping and NOT peeling.
