How do you cook a jacket potato?

Answer 1

First select good quality baking potatoes, preferably all roughly the size of a clenched fist, wash them in cold salted water to get rid of all the dirt and bugs, prick the potato several times with a fork or skewer (this is optional). Pre heat your oven to 180c, place your potatoes on a baking tray and bake for about 1 to 1½ hours, use a skewer to test that they are soft (cooked) in the middle, serve with lots of butter or your favourite filling.

Answer 2

Jacket potatoes are potatoes baked in their skins. Some people brush them with oil before cooking to make the skins crispy.

simple recipe:

Scrub potatoes and place on foil or baking tray. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and brush or drizzle with oil. Alternatively, roll each potato ( individually) in foil (this will produce a softer less crispy skin).

Bake in hot oven (350f) until cooked. Cooking time depends on size of potato. Roughly allow 15 minutes for a small potato.

Answer 3

You won't believe this...but a 12 penny construction nail! When you are cooking your potatoes, before you cook them.."nail" them. The heat from the cooking method will heat the nail also and make the potato cook faster. Afterward, the nail will still be hot and will keep the interior of the potato warm.

Obviously, wash the nails before you use them. But it works! Take the nails out before serving.

Answer 4

You need to put the potatoes in the oven for about 25 minutes. Test with a skewer if not cooked put in for an extra 10 minutes or until cooked.
