How to Make The Perfect Fluffy Baked Potato
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Scrub 2-3 russet potatoes thoroughly and pat them completely dry. Remove any blemishes with a vegetable peeler.
- In a small bowl, beat 1 large egg white until soft peaks form.
- Prick each potato several times with a fork to prevent steam buildup.
- Brush potatoes evenly with the beaten egg white.
- Generously roll the egg-white coated potatoes in 1-2 teaspoons of kosher salt.
- Place potatoes directly on the oven rack. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a fork easily pierces the center.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly before topping with your favorite toppings (e.g., butter, sour cream, cheese, chives).
