1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Potatoes:
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Poke each potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during baking.
3. Season the Potatoes:
Rub the potatoes with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the potatoes with coarse sea salt and black pepper, rubbing it in for an even coating.
4. Bake the Potatoes:
Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet for easier cleanup.
Bake for about 1 hour, or until the skin is crispy and the inside is tender when pierced with a fork.
5. Serve:
Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Cut a slit in the top of each potato and fluff the insides with a fork.
Add your favorite toppings and serve hot.
