COOKING GUIDE
COOKING GUIDE
How long it will take to cook an oven full of potatoes will depend upon a number of factors: the size of
potato, oven temperature and even the type of potato. In general, however, you should expect:
¾
24 x 8oz potatoes at 190 - 200°C for 60 minutes
¾
18 x 10oz potatoes at 190 - 200°C for 70 minutes
When the oven is fully loaded, particularly with larger potatoes, air-flow inside may become
restricted. In this case, it may be desirable to reduce the cooking temperature and increase the
cooking time.
ABOUT POTATOES
ABOUT POTATOES
We recommend the use of washed and graded
baking
potatoes as non-baking varieties take
longer to cook and don’t produce such good results, King Edward, Maris Piper or Desiree are
three good baking varieties although your supplier may be able to recommend others to you.
Some ways you can prepare your potatoes include:
¾
Rubbing the skins in olive oil and salt. ~ (makes the skins crisper)
¾
Pricking the skins ~ (may reduce the risk of the potatoes bursting)
¾
Wrapping them in foil ~ (produces a much “wetter” potato with a soft, thin skin, also
increases the cooking time, ~ not really a proper “jacket” potato).
The skin of the potato will become thicker and crunchier if it is cooked for longer at a lower
temperature. However once the baked potatoes are removed from the oven, the skins will become
softer as they reduce in temperature. Once removed from the very hot temperature of the baking oven
and placed into the lower temperature of the holding oven, the potatoes will inevitably reduce in core
temperature. The display oven is intentionally at a lower temperature to prevent the potato from over-
cooking; this also helps to prolong the display life of the potato.
Despite being prepared and cooked in the same way, the same batch of potatoes can produce
different results! Please use the method of baking that suits you best and gives you the
results you want ~
HAPPY BAKING!
