Last year someone gave me a "potato bag" as a gift. I n
ever used it. I don't often serve baked potato's for a meal as my kids prefer real mashed potato's. Over the past few weeks, I have had a few friends mention that they use them and thought I would give mine a try. They also said they work great for corn and muffins so they stay moist as well.It worked well and the potato was soft and I just squeezed it and put toppin
gs on. The kids used things from ranch dressing, sour cream, cheese, and Bacos to top their potato's. I just had salt, pepper, and butter on mine and it was wonderful. They were much more moist than when they are pricked with a fork and microwaved and they didn't get hard like microwaved potato's do. Mine were cooked and then two girls said they had to leave without notice and weren't back for a few hours. We reheated them and they were still wonderful.

They are now making a specific Tater batting made in the Warm and Natural line. You can get a yard for less than 3 bucks. You have to make sure that there isn’t any glitter or stuff in your fabric.
How To Make Potato in the Baker Bags:
Perfectly baked potatoes using a microwave and a fabric bag? Cute idea!
This simple bag creates a “just right” baked potato in your microwave. The inside is well done, yet moist, and the skin remains tender.
The bag will cook one to four medium sized potatoes at once.
Simply wash and dry your Potatoes. DO NOT PRICK!!
Wrap the potatoes in a paper towel and place in bag.
Microwave as instructed by the microwave manufacturer. Time will vary per microwave.
When serving, do not cut with knife, simply use a fork. potatoes will be very fluffy.
Let the bag air dry. ENJOY!!

Caution: Please do not leave unattended and make sure to use only 100% cotton materials.If your microwave is too hot to use the bags, either turn down in temperature or don’t use the bags (sparking, small burn hole problems in the fabric, or they can cause fire).
Here is a link to a site for the instructions. Be sure to use only 100 % cotton fabric. Use muslin on the inside as ours bled ink from the fabric through into the paper towels when it gets damp from the potatoes.
