Ingredients

  • 4 Idaho russet baking potatoes
  • Unsalted butter
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Wash the potatoes and place them directly on the oven baking rack. Bake for 45 to 60 minutes, until very tender when pierced with a skewer.

When the potatoes are done, cut them down the middle and squeeze both ends. Place a slice of butter in the middle of the potato, sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve hot.
