1) like a clove of garlic you can smash the hell out of it first - loosening the skin from the body. You have to give it a big jesus whack though.
Note : this doesnt work well on the smaller ones as they can potentially pop like grapes thus completely ruining the dining experience, not to mention the presentation.

2) get a 'key' from a can of spam. With a sharp knife make a nick in the flesh of the animal on a place where there is no fur .. like the tops of the feet or where the tail starts.
insert the fleshy tab from the nick into the slot in the 'key' and begin twisting the 'key' effectively peeling away the top layer of flesh and skin, taking the fur with it.
When you become adept at this you should be able to get the whole skin off in one go.
Leaving behind a nice juicy morsel.
You wont need water to wash that baby down !


(and your kid thinks i have nothing of value to add .. MEH ... )

LMAO...I suppose that I will have to re-educate them (the kids...not the hamsters...lol) on the subtle nuances, of all that which is Urgeok ;)
