Baking A Giant Idaho® Potato
Q: In a 10 lb bag of Idaho® russets I found a HUGE potato, bigger than any potato I've ever cooked! I don't want to cut it up, but I have no idea how long to bake it. I measured it...it is more than 6 inches long, with a slightly more than 9-inch circumference.
How long and at what temperature should I bake it at? Any special instructions?
