1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2
Prepare the Potatoes
Scrub the russet potatoes under running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a towel.
3
Season the Potatoes
Prick each potato several times with a fork. Rub each potato with olive oil and sprinkle kosher salt all over.
4
Bake the Potatoes
Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
5
Serve
Remove the potatoes from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, then serve with your choice of condiments on the side.
