Categories     Potato

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 large russet potato
canola oil
kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F and position racks in top and bottom thirds.
  • Wash potato (or potatoes) thoroughly with a stiff brush and cold running water.
  • Dry, then using a standard fork poke 8 to 12 deep holes all over the spud so that moisture can escape during cooking.
  • Place in a bowl and coat lightly with oil.
  • Sprinkle with kosher salt and place potato directly on rack in middle of oven.
  • Place a baking sheet (I put a piece of aluminum foil) on the lower rack to catch any drippings.
  • Bake 1 hour or until skin feels crisp but flesh beneath feels soft.
  • Serve by creating a dotted line from end to end with your fork, then crack the spud open by squeezing the ends towards one another.
  • It will pop right open.
  • But watch out, there will be some steam.
  • NOTE: If you're cooking more than 4 potatoes, you'll need to extend the cooking time by up to 15 minutes.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my potatoes came out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

I've made these potatoes several times now and they're always a hit. They're so easy to make and they always come out perfectly fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside.
