Step 4

4 Halve each potato lengthwise and place cut side up on a work surface

Step 5

5 If the potatoes are still too hot, use an oven mitt or kitchen towel to hold them

Step 6

6 Using a small spoon, gently scoop out the flesh from each half into a medium bowl, leaving a 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch thickness of flesh in each skin

Step 7

7 Don’t fret if the skins tear a bit, you can still fill them

Step 8

8 Arrange the skins on the baking sheet and return them to the oven for about 10 minutes, or until lightly crisped
