Baked Potatoes (Wash the potatoes perfectly)

Wash the potatoes perfectly clean and let them drain; put them in an old baking pan in a hot oven and bake until soft. Potatoes of medium size will take about forty minutes. Baked potatoes should be served as soon as they are done, but if they must stand for any time the skins should be broken so that the moisture may escape.
