皮を剥いた
解説 Definition
skinned は skin（皮を剥ぐ）の過去形・過去分詞で、形容詞では皮を剥いたという意味です。食品や材料について、外側の皮が取り除かれている状態を表すときに使います。
Having had the outer skin or covering removed. The adjective is commonly used for foods or ingredients, such as tomatoes, almonds, or potatoes, that have been prepared by taking off their natural outer layer.
覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
skin は名詞なら「皮膚・皮」、動詞なら「皮を剥ぐ」です。語末が短母音＋子音字 n なので、-ed を付ける際に n を重ねて skinned となり、発音は /skɪnd/ です。skinned tomatoes や skinned almonds のように、食品の外皮がすでに取り除かれた状態を思い浮かべましょう。
Start with skin: as a noun it is an outer covering, and as a verb it means to remove that covering. Because skin ends in a stressed short vowel followed by n, the n is doubled before -ed, producing skinned, pronounced /skɪnd/. Picture skinned tomatoes going into a pot or skinned almonds used in a recipe. The word describes the result of preparation: the food no longer has its skin. Do not confuse it with skinny, which means unusually thin and does not mean that the skin has been removed.

The recipe uses skinned almonds.
そのレシピでは皮を剥いたアーモンドを使います。
Please keep the skinned potatoes in cold water.

skinned の語源・成り立ち Etymology
skinned は古ノルド語 skinn「皮・毛皮」が中英語 skin になり、そこから動詞 skin「皮をはぐ」に -ed が付いた形です。語幹 skin が「皮」を表すので、「皮をむいた」という意味が自然に出ます。関連語は skin, skinny です。
Skinned is the past-tense and past-participle form of the verb skin, with final n doubled before -ed. Skin entered Middle English from Old Norse skinn, referring to an animal hide or fur. The noun later developed a verb meaning “to remove the skin from.” The participle consequently came to describe something from which the outer covering has been removed, particularly food ingredients. Its spelling preserves the base word skin while following the regular consonant-doubling pattern.
