4 big russet potatoes

   Olive oil

   Salt

   Toppings of your choice (e.g., butter, sour cream, chives, cheese, bacon, etc.)

Instructions:

   Preheat oven to four twenty five degrees Fahrenheit (two hundred twenty celsius). Clean potatoes well under running water to remove any soil and dry them with a kitchen towel.

   Stick each potato multiple times with a fork or knife so that steam can get out when baking and not let it burst open.

   Rub every potato using olive oil then add enough salt. This will make crispy skins and bring out the taste.

You can place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake them for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until they’re soft enough when poked with a fork.

   Once the potatoes have been baked, take them out of the oven carefully using mitts or a towel because they will be hot. Let them cool for a few minutes until it’s safe to touch them.

   To serve, cut each potato in half lengthwise using a knife and fluff up inside with a fork. Then add your favorite toppings such as butter, sour cream, chives, cheese, bacon etc..

   Serve immediately while still hot and enjoy this incredibly tasty comfort food!
