400 degrees. For best results, wash the potato and poke it all over with a fork then cover the potato with salt. Wrap the potato in aluminum foil and bake at 400 degrees for about 90 minutes for a large potato and about 60 minutes for medium potatoes.

Wash the potato well. Coat with a little bit of oil. Pierce the potato several times and bake at 375° - 400°F soft. The skin will be crisp. I usually put a pot holder over the potato and see if I can squish it a bit. If it gives somewhat easily it is done. about 45 minutes

As hot as your oven goes (I used 240 degrees Celsius).

Potatoes are often baked alongside a roast or other meat in the oven, at whatever temperature the meat requires, often 350 to 400 degrees (F). Potatoes will cook more slowly at lower temperatures, and more quickly at higher temperatures.

400 degrees. Times vary with the size and thickness of the potatoes. A way to test for doneness is if the potato gives a little when you poke it gently.
