Baked Potatoes with Roasted Onions and Sour Cream image

I don't know what it is about these potatoes, from the cookbook Second Helpings from Union Square Cafe, that is so good. Roasting them in sea salt in a cast iron skillet just does....something. I love preparing this recipe; it's almost like a ritual! :) Preparation and cooking times are close guesstimates. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!
