Potatoes Baked

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Wash clean, wipe dry, put in a moderately hot oven in a baking pan, increasing heat until the skin becomes firm and of a light brown color. If the oven is kept at the proper temperature potatoes will bake in from thirty to forty minutes, according to size. Baked potatoes should be taken from the oven and served as soon as they are done. Potatoes baked with fowl or meat of any kind are very nice. Pare and parboil, then place in the pan containing the fowl or roast ; turn over when partly cooked so they may brown evenly. Peel cold baked patatoes ; slice into a frying-pan ; add cream, butter, pepper and salt ; set on the stove and let them come to a boil ; stir, and heat thoroughly.
