How To Prevent The Inside Of My Potato Skewers From Turning Black

When using skewers, how can I prevent the inside of my potato from turning dark?

Answer

If you use metal skewers for baking potatoes, heat the skewers first. This seals the potato and prevents the center of the potato from turning dark.
