Baked potatoes are a great classic in the kitchen, but how many times have they become mushy, charred or bland?
The good news is that you can get perfect potatoes with a super simple trick: crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and as delicious as in a restaurant.
Discover the final method below!
❌ The most common mistakes
Here’s why your baked potatoes may not turn out the way you hope:
Cook them at too low a temperature
Do not dry them well after washing
Overcrowd the pan (“cook” it instead of roasting it)
Use the wrong potatoes (those with too floury paste will fall apart)
🔥 The secret trick: double cooking
The basic step is to blanch the potatoes briefly before cooking them in the oven. This serves to:
Softening the interior
Form an outer foil that will be super crispy in the oven
Improve cooking tightness
