- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Scrub the potatoes, pat dry, rub with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, until tender. Let cool for 10–15 minutes.

- Brush the inside and outside of the skins with a little more oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place skin-side up on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
- Flip over and bake another 8–10 minutes, until the edges are crisp.
