This is nothing what it sounds like so beware, if you are looking for regular baked potatoes this is not for you. This is a terrific and tasty appetizer and it looks great. These are great make ahead, read through first. Time includes baking the potatoes twice. If you desire once they are done you can cut each one in half again, do not do this before you fill and bake again, it's too hard because they are too small to work with.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for baking, as they have a fluffy texture and a thin skin that crisps up nicely in the oven.
  • Scrub the potatoes well: This will help to remove any dirt or debris from the skin.
  • Prick the potatoes with a fork: This will help to prevent them from bursting in the oven.
  • Rub the potatoes with oil: This will help to create a crispy skin.
  • Season the potatoes with salt and pepper: You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Bake the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy skin and a fluffy interior.
  • Check the potatoes for doneness: Insert a fork into the center of a potato. If it slides in easily, the potato is done.
  • Let the potatoes cool slightly before serving: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Baked potatoes are a simple but delicious side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are also a great way to use up leftover potatoes. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect baked potatoes every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give baked potatoes a try!
