What is a metal skewer?
To skewer is to pierce right though, usually with a twisting motion as with a fencing epee or sword. In cooking a skewer is a piece of metal usuallybetween 6 and 12 inches in length, sharp at one end and often bent into a loop, circle or some sort of handle at the other end. The sort of implement on which you thread chunks of meat and vegetables to make a kebab for a barbecue. Can also be used to pierce potatoes for baking - they are baked with the skewer still stuck through them because it conducts heat into the middle of the potato and reduces the cooking time. Skewers can be used to test if a cake is baked in the middle.

How do you cook a jacket potato?
First select good quality baking potatoes, preferably all roughly the size of a clenched fist, wash them in cold salted water to get rid of all the dirt and bugs, prick the potato several times with a fork or skewer (this is optional). Pre heat your oven to 180c, place your potatoes on a baking tray and bake for about 1 to 1½ hours, use a skewer to test that they are soft (cooked) in the middle, serve with lots of butter or your favourite filling.

How much weight can a skewer hold?
The weight a skewer can hold depends on its material, thickness, and length. Generally, a metal skewer can hold more weight than a wooden skewer. However, it's best practice not to exceed 1-2 pounds of food per skewer to prevent them from bending or breaking.
How do you know when a sweet potato pie is done?
When a baked potato is cooked it should be crisp outside and soft inside. Not all methods of baking produce a crisp finish, and potatoes baked in their jackets aren't usually crisp because the skins don't crisp as effectively as the outside of peeled potatoes. To check whether a potato is done inside you could insert a thin sharp object such as a fine skewer or narrow unserrated knife. Move the knife or skewer slightly inside the potato to test for give, that is, movement inside. If the potato isn't cooked through there will be inner resistance rather than a soft texture. Or you can simply cut the potato in half and check the centre. If it isn't done, you simply continue cooking the two halves; this will make no difference to the finished food unless you particularly need the potatoes to be cooked whole.
