This is the perfect baked potato recipe! I'll never use foil or do it another way again. Make sure you use plump, freash spuds. I use coarse sea salt which seems fine.
Another twist (Twice baked: bake about 40-45 minutes. Using oven-mitts, cut in half lengthwise. Scoop out with soup spoon and mash as you would your favorite mashed potato recipe. Refill empty shells and return to oven on a cookie sheet for 20 minutes or until they JUST start to turn golden. Hint: bake extra potatoes so you can pile up the mashed potato back into the shells. Four halves will refill 3 halves.

I'm serious, the skin was perfect.
I used to not like the skins, but eating this way, I feel like I just have to eat them because they're so gosh darn delicious! 16 thumbs up!

I'm not a potato person, but I like this recipe! The middle is perfectly cooked. The skin of the potato is perfect, so be sure to scrub the skin well, because you'll want to eat it. Also, you might want to put a rack under the potatos with piece of foil to catch some of the moisture that falls from the potatoes.

This, by far, is the best recipe ever for baked potatoes.
