The fact that the taste of the dish will depend on the variety, quality and size of the tubers is not even discussed. And although, at first glance, there is nothing easier than a potato baked in the oven, without a knowledge of the matter, a truly gastronomic masterpiece will not work.

A good, suitable potato:

• dense, hard tubers;
• smooth and even peel;
• there is no green pigment in color (it indicates that there is solanine in the fruits - negatively affecting the taste and not so harmless);
• medium size (small has not yet become really useful, and too large could not have grown so without chemical influence);
• the pulp is hard (if soft and even moist - the vegetable is "teeming" with nitrates).

For baking, you need potatoes, in which there is a lot of starch. There are some varieties with just such an indicator. Then the dish will be crumbly. For example, for a salad it is better to take low-starch potatoes, and for frying - medium starch.

Oven cooking options

There are countless, but we have selected five of the few best recipes.
