北海道バター芋

Ingredients
Method
Scrub potatoes well. Prick all over with a fork. Rub lightly with olive oil and wrap in foil.
About 5 min
Bake at 200°C for 55–60 minutes until a skewer passes through the centre with no resistance.
About 1 hr
Unwrap and cut a deep cross in the top of each potato. Push the ends to split it open wide.
About 2 min
Place a 20g block of Hokkaido butter directly in the cavity. It will melt down into the fluffy potato.
About 1 min
Season with flaky sea salt and black pepper. Add optional sour cream, chives, or corn. Eat hot.
