Perfect Baked Potatoes
"There’s an old saying that the simplest recipes are the best way to gauge a cook’s talent. With baked potatoes, it’s no different, and this recipe guarantees fluffy potatoes baked to perfection. And, hey, finishing them off with butter and sharp Cheddar doesn’t hurt. Stock your baked potato bar with classic toppings like classic sour cream, chives, and bacon, and some healthy steamed broccoli thrown in for good measure. To keep the fully baked potatoes warm before serving, wrap them in foil and keep in a 200º F oven for up to 1 hour...."
