People who do whole baked potatoes in the oven. Do you do wrapped in foil or naked?

[–] TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 6 points 7 months ago

Stab a hole or two in the spuds, parboil in microwave, then naked. Foil is for beetroot only.

Foil! And salt'n'butter 🤤

Wrapped to cook then naked to crisp the skins at the end

Hmm, just double checked and the internet says to leave them wrapped, but I’ve done the naked bit before with success

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 1 points 7 months ago

I agree with your first method

[–] underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 4 points 7 months ago

Wrapped with butter and salt. And now I want one!

[–] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 3 points 7 months ago

Foil then naked at the end.

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 3 points 7 months ago

Naked on a small pile of rock salt. Par boiled first.

Skewered on metal and foil with butter and garlic
