When I think about the best potato, some things come to my mind.

• A golden potato that is cooked with perfection. Its skin is shiny and crisp with oil.
• When you cut the potatoes in half, the middle part is soft and it is easy to inflate from the fork.
• The inner part is so hot that a piece of butter can melt in a few seconds.
• This is an potato that you cannot stop eating after cooking well with salt and pepper.
• Take this ripe potato up one notch and make it a complete meal by putting ripe potatoes with chili, sour cream, or any other topping.

When it comes to cooking the best potatoes in the oven, you only need it 4 materials.

1. Russet potato -I recommend using large red potatoes, especially if they are the main part of your food. If you have Idaho potatoes, they will also work. Time may vary depending on how big potatoes are.
2. olive oil- I recommend olive oil because I like it taste. If you do not have olive oil, use free avocado oil, vegetable oil or butter. Oil is very important, which is why potato peel becomes crisp and becomes golden brown.
3. Salt- Do not skimp on salt, it adds amazing taste to potato peel.
4. black pepper – Fresh ground black pepper is a great tasteful.
