Peel Potatoes for Kugul

I have thin skinned, relatively clean potatoes. Do you think I need to peel them for a kugel? I'm asking because they're small, and it's annoying to peel them, besides, that it's taking forever!

What was the result? same as peeled? different?

I would think the kugel would turn out just fine.

But my first reaction was, - what a waste of those baby new potatoes to smish them up into a kugel! They are simply delicious eaten with a blob of butter/marg or as a potato salad. We like them in the cholent, always washed well and left unpeeled.

The only time I've ever peeled them is for karpas, because we peel everything on pesach.

I have enough for kugel, cholent, potato salad and more! They're left over from Pesach I have 30 pounds. I don't want them to go bad.

I have about half what I need peeled already, but I think I'll stop now!
