how long to bake potatoes at 375 in foil

To bake potatoes at 375°F (190°C) in foil, follow these general guidelines:

1. Small to medium-sized potatoes (about 1-1.5 inches in diameter): 45-60 minutes.
2. Medium-sized potatoes (about 1.5-2 inches in diameter): 60-75 minutes.
3. Large potatoes (about 2-2.5 inches in diameter): 75-90 minutes.
4. Extra-large potatoes (about 2.5 inches or larger in diameter): 90-120 minutes.

Here’s a step-by-step process:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Scrub the potatoes clean and dry them with a paper towel.
3. Poke some holes in each potato with a fork to allow steam to escape.
4. Rub the potatoes with a little bit of oil and sprinkle with salt.
5. Wrap each potato in foil, making sure to seal the edges tightly.
6. Place the potatoes directly on the middle rack of the oven.
7. Bake for the recommended time, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

Remember, the baking time may vary depending on the size and type of potatoes you use, as well as your personal preference for doneness. You can always check for doneness by inserting a fork or knife into the potato; if it slides in easily, it’s done!
