Ingredients
  • 1 baking potato per person (make sure they are similar in size in order to bake in the same amount of time)
  • Olive oil
  • Sea salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees, with oven rack placed in the middle setting;
  2. Rinse potatoes thoroughly under running COLD water and using a brush (do NOT soak). Dry them with paper towel and using the tip of a paring knife, remove any apparent bruises;
  3. Pierce the potatoes with a fork 3 or 4 times, to allow the steam to escape when baking;
  4. Put a few drops of olive oil on your hands and then rub on the potato skin;
  5. Place a little bit of sea salt on a plate and roll the greased potatoes on the salt, remove the excess;
  6. Bake directly on the rack for about 45 minutes (turning potatoes halfway through baking time) or until tender when pierced with a fork. Careful to not overcook for potatoes will become dry. Place a sheet of aluminum foil on the bottom of the oven or on the lower rack below the potatoes, to collect any drippings that might fall;
  7. To serve, cut a slit on the potatoes and fill it with your favorite topping.
