Re: Excellent baked potatoes

Everyone has their own recipe to bake potatoes. I use only Idaho. Then
I soak them in water with salt for about half an hour at room
temerature. Then I scrub them with mean green. Rub olive oil on the
skin. Bake in the oven at 375 F in a pan with Rock salt.
Soaking in salted water gives them a swwet flavor. The oiled skin has a
nice meaty texture. When I came to this country about 43 years ago, I
worked in a restaurant in NYC. Thats how they baked the potatoes. I
liked them then and now. Yes the skin is very eduble
