Yummy Baked Potato Recipe
- 1 baking potato
- 1 teaspoon butter or 1 teaspoon margarine
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
- 1 dash of grated cheddar cheese
- 3 teaspoons sour cream
- Preheat your oven to bake at 400F.
- Wash the potato in warm water to clean off dirt.
- Place the potato on the oven racks middle tray so it receives heat evenly.
- Do not poke holes in the potato!
- After 40 minutes the potato may swell up, so at this time hit it gently with a wooden spoon to break the skin.
- This prevents the potato from breaking in the oven.
- After 60 minutes reduce the heat to 100F or as close to that as possibles (oven temperatures vary).
- Leave the potato for another 2 hours.
- After a total of 3 hours the potato should be sweating, and the insides should be a grayish or even bronze color.
- Make a slit at the top of the potato, add your butter, salt, black pepper and grated cheese.
- Mix the potato up with a fork, BUT DO NOT MASH THE POTATO!
- Add sour-cream to the top and serve!
- And as my friend Asif says, enjoy it with a glass of Canadian wine!
- Enjoy!
