Again, something very simple can add so much to a meal. Salt and oil on the potato skins of these baked spuds rival those in restaurants. Ingredients:
6 large baking potatoes, well scrubbed and patted dry |
1/4 cup quality olive oil |
1/4 cup coarse kosher or sea salt |
Directions:
1. Place salt in shallow dish, large enough for a single potato to fit
2. Lightly brush(or, like me, just use the two best kitchen tools you have...your hands! ;) olive oil over outside of each potato
3. Roll each potato in salt(no need to cover, but should be present on all sides of the tater :)
4. Place in center of oven, directly on oven rack
5. Bake at 375 for 60-70 minutes until fork tender
6. Let cool slightly before serving
7. Carefully open each potato and serve with butter and sour cream with chives or green onions.
8. **Also a great base for a loaded baked potato**
9. If you usually poke your taters, feel free to poke... otherwise, a good scrubbing should remove a few bits of skin, accomplishing the same thing! :)
