Baked potato faux pas

Today I:
  • made the fatal error of wrapping my potatoes in tin foil. The skill of being able to bake a perfect potato is learnt at university but is obviously not akin to riding a bicycle.

  1. if the potatoes are in coals then tin foil is perfect! Rob does ours at about 140 for three hours or so..

  2. Try baking in a pan with coarse salt (kosher salt?) spread around them; it absorbs the moisture and they come out really good. Then smother in butter, sour cream, and cream cheese for an orgasmic dining experience.
