With hunt and peck, you have to look at the keyboard because you don't know where the letters are and you have to hunt for them. Usually, this means that people use their two index fingers to type--it looks like pecking away at the keys.
Touch typing means that your hands and your mind know all the keys on the keyboard by mind memory and muscle memory. You don't look at the keyboard--instead you look at why you're typing so you can watch for mistakes. You type based on the touch and feel of your keyboard. Because each of your fingers is assigned only to two or three keys apiece, you're able to maintain hand position on the keyboard and the letters just flow unconsciously from your fingers. Touch typists are universes faster than people who hunt and peck on their keyboards.
