Should you prick holes with a fork in frankfurters before cooking them please!

no, just heat to heat them up in hot water

if you prick them it may stop them peeling.

Best way to heat franks is bring pot of water to boil.turn off heat,place franks in water,place lid on and leave for 10mins.heated to perfection.No need to prick and they dont split.Enjoy.

Yes, that is exactly what I am trying to avoid - them splitting!Thanks everyone.
