Preparation
Step 1
Instructions
1. Wash and Scrub Potatoes
2. Place in pot, bowl or whatever you wish that is big enough to hold the potatoes and cover with water and pour in kosher salt to make a brine.
3. Leave the potatoes in the brine for at least 4 hours or more if you can.
4. Remove Potatoes from brine, dry and rub with olive oil.
5. Place season salt, garlic and black pepper in a large ziplock baggie, add potatoes, seal and shake well to coat the entire potato with the seasons.
6. Remove the potatoes from the bag and place on baking sheet
7. Do NOT puncture any holes in the potatoes. If the steam stays in the potato, it will be moist and delicious.
8. Bake in a preheated 420 degree F oven for 1 hour.
9. Remove from oven and the skin should be crusty and very seasoned, and the inside (meat) of the potato is fluffy and perfectly cooked.
10. Split the top of the potato and add toppings such as butter, chives or sour cream
