See what to do: How To Bake a Potato in the Oven. Preheat the oven to 425Â°F. Rub the potatoes with olive oil, sprinkle them with salt and pepper, and prick them with the tines of a fork. You can lay them directly on the oven rack or place them on a baking sheet.
The higher the temperature, the quicker your potatoes will bake. Scrub the potatoes under cold water. Since you will be eating the skin, make sure the potatoes are clean. Pierce each potato several times with a fork or pointy knife. This will allow the steam to escape during baking. If you don't pierce the potatoes, they may explode while baking in the oven and make a real mess. Roll the potatoes in olive oil and sprinkle it with coarse salt or herbs, for flavor. Put the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake.
