I've grown chiles for 30 years, roasted, peeled, etc. I often use flowing
water to get the last bit of skin off. Was this removing flavor? If so, I
never realized it. I wouldn't use water to completely remove skin, but the
last little bits that cling are annoying to remove otherwise. Margaret L

I was surfing around yesterday and came upon this
article.

One question...why do food writers continue to tell
folks to rinse the skins from the peppers when that
just makes you lose all the flavor?? Stupid tip.
