Baked potatoes are a tasty and flavorful side dish that is much less harmful than fried potatoes.
However, the vegetable must be baked correctly.
Many cooks pour the potato pieces onto a baking sheet and then put them in the oven.
But this is a gross oversight, because of which the dish loses its bright taste and acquires an unsuccessful consistency!
The expert of the online publication Belnovosti in the field of cooking, chef, fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova told how to bake potatoes correctly.
Why you shouldn't put potatoes on a baking sheet
If the vegetable pieces are placed on a metal sheet, they are unlikely to be baked evenly.
The top of the potato slice will cook properly. But the bottom will not: the thing is that it will simply "stick" to the surface.
In such conditions, the cook will either get poorly baked potatoes with a bit of cheese, or burnt vegetables.
How to bake potatoes correctly
The potatoes should be placed on a wire rack, not on a baking sheet.
Of course, you shouldn't cut the tubers too small. It's better to cut each vegetable in half. Or you can just bake the tubers whole.
Due to the placement on the grill, the potatoes will be baked evenly and on each side. The dish will turn out perfect.
Earlier, gourmets were told whether it is possible to bake healthy pancakes.
