Salt-Crusted Baked Potatoes

Recipe by cookbook author and Coastal Goods partner SARAH LEAH CHASE
  

These baked potatoes look as terrific as they taste, as the salt crust yields an especially fluffy potato interior and wonderfully crusted exterior. Serve the potatoes with a generous drizzle of rich olive oil, pat of high-quality butter, or traditional dollop of sour cream.


INGREDIENTS
• 4 large baking potatoes, about 1/2 pound each
• 1 large egg white
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1/2 cup any blend Sarah's Sea Salt (we're partial to the Mediterranean and Tuscan blends)

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Preheat oven to 400 F.

  2. Prick potatoes all over with the tines of a fork. Beat the egg white and water together in a shallow dish until frothy. Place the Sarah's Sea Salt-of-choice in another shallow dish. Roll each potato in the egg white mixture to coat completely and then roll in the salt to coat lightly all over. Arrange the potatoes in a shallow, foil-lined baking pan.

  3. Bake the potatoes until tender when pierced with the tip of a small paring knife, about 1 hour. Slit the potatoes open, embellish with favorite toppings, and serve at once.
