tasty tuesday's

Hello, all! I was having some computer issues last night, but here is this weeks recipe! It's SUPER easy and VERY delicious! Enjoy :)

   The Best Baked Potato Ever
     I swear that's what it's called. I was looking up how to best bake a baked potato and googled that exact phrase and got this recipe! haha Gotta love google.
 
   What you need:
     - 6 to 8 baked potatoes (or russet, whichever you prefer)
     - kosher salt
     - oil (any kind will do, whatever's on hand)
   What you do:
      Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Scrub the potatoes really well and make sure they are clean. Then poke holes all over the potatoes with a fork. Rub them or dip them in oil and then sprinkle with kosher salt. Now here's where the difference is made. Do NOT wrap them in tin foil. I repeat do NOT wrap the potatoes!!!! Place them directly on the top rack of your preheated oven with a baking sheet under them to catch any droppings. Let them cook for about an hour to an hour and a half and voila! You have the best baked potato EVER! Trust me...it's seriously delicious. You know your baked potatoes are good when people ask you for your recipe! haha Seriously, try it. You'll never wrap your potatoes again!!!

  1. Heather, you are SO RIGHT! I stopped wrapping my potatoes a couple months ago and it has made such a difference. Who knew the difference between baking and steaming could means such a change in flavor! They are delicious!!
