Sauteing is an important cooking skill and one of the more basic techniques. Saute is cooking food quickly in oil or butter over a high heat. It is best to use a skillet or a saute pan leaving you room to cook all of your vegetables or meat.
Butter Or Oil:
Cooking a baked potato is an easy process that anyone can do with in no time at all. First you want to use Idaho or Oregon Russet potatoes because they are the best. Remember not to store them in a room that is below 55°F.
Wash and scrub well. 3M makes a green scrubby that works well. Pat dry. Prick the ends with a fork to let moisture escape during baking. This will make the potato fluffy instead of gummy. Oil or butter lightly. Season lightly with kosher salt and a few twist of the pepper mill on all sides.
