HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT BAKED POTATO

Long holiday weekends usually mean a big barbecue for my family. And a barbecue isn’t complete without a delicious perfect baked potato on the side! There are a few ways to cook potatoes but my favorite is in the oven. It’s simple, easy and the results are delicious! The softest skins with perfectly cooked insides!

First, preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Next, wash your potatoes off thoroughly. Use a vegetable scrubber if necessary. Then pierce the skin of each potato with the fork several times. Now rub a good amount (about a teaspoon) of olive oil onto the skin of each potato. (I use my hands to do this) Place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle generously with coarse salt.



Bake for 45 minutes to an hour, depending on size and thickness of the potatoes. (Best way to tell if they’re done is to stick a fork in the center. If the potato is finished cooking, it will be easy to push the fork through with no resistance.)
