Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Scrub potatoes under warm water using a vegetable brush.
With a fork, poke holes about 1/2 inch deep in each potato. (You only need to do this three or four times.)
Place the potatoes on the oven's middle rack, spaced evenly. Do not wrap them in foil.
Bake about 1 hour. Smaller potatoes may take less time. Larger potatoes may take more time. You want the potato nice and soft.
After about 40 minutes, poke the potatoes with a fork to test their progress.
When tender, carefully remove the potatoes from the oven, cut lengthwise and serve immediately.
Top potatoes with salt and pepper, plus butter, sour cream, chopped chives or other toppings of your choice.
