    Baked Potato Tips

    Recipe




    Do you use aluminum foil? Bad move. You're actually making a boiled
    potato. The foil traps the moisture and essentially steams the
    potato.

    Place the potato on the oven rack instead of wrapping it, and pierce
    the skin a few times with a fork. Place a piece of foil on the rack
    below the potato to catch any drippings from the potatoes. The result
    will be a baked potato with a crispy skin. For an even crispier skin,
    rub some butter or spray with cooking spray before baking it. Bake
    the potato at 450 degrees for one hour.

    Another wonderful idea is to salt the potato after you rub it with
    butter or spray it with cooking spray. We use Kosher salt when
    adding this touch.

    How do you open a baked potato? Use a fork to make two cuts--once
    lengthwise and then crosswise. Push the potato from the ends and
    you'll have one very presentable potato.
