Instructions
Scrub baking potatoes and prick with a fork. Bake in
a 425 degree oven for 40-45 minutes or until tender;

Cut each potato lengthwise into 4 wedges. Scoop out
the white portion of the potato wedge. Cover and

hot pepper sauce. Using a pastry brush, brush the
insides of the potato wedges with the oil mixture.
