Is there a word for this?

Question from a friend:

>>>>>
When you remove the covering of something, say, the peel of an orange, or
an eggshell on a hard-boiled egg, in such a way that it remains a single
continuous piece, there's a word for that. And I cannot for the life of me
bring it to mind.
Anyone have an idea what I'm thinking of?
