It is generally not recommended to leave peeled potatoes out at room temperature for two days before cooking. They are likely to become discolored, dry out, and may develop harmful bacteria. It is best to store peeled potatoes in the refrigerator submerged in water to prevent browning, and ideally cook them within 24 hours.
