• Place the potatoes in the oven, and roast for 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the potatoes, until they offer no resistance when a knife is inserted in their centers.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven, slice them open down the middle, apply a tablespoon of butter to each one and serve immediately.
