Baked Potatoes with Créme Fraiche and Caviar image

Very simple and ultra-delicious, these special baked potatoes will make a wonderful starter, side, or even a light main for all kinds of celebratory gatherings. Martha likes to use Yukon Gold potatoes as their thin skin crisps up nicely in the oven.

Time 1h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 Yukon Gold or russet potatoes, scrubbed
Kosher salt
Crème fraiche and best-quality caviar and/or salmon roe, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F with a rack in center. Bake potatoes directly on rack until darkened slightly, beginning to wrinkle, and easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 1 to 1 1/2 hours (depending on size).
  • Working one at a time, immediately wrap potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and slam down onto a countertop (this ensures a light, fluffy texture). Slash potatoes to open, season, and top generously with dollops of crème fraîche and scoops of caviar. Serve immediately.
