MOM'S SCALLOPED POTATOES
This is the way my mother always made her scalloped potatoes. The measurements are taken from other recipes because she always just winged it, but the method is the same. The key is to heat the milk first!

ALL-DAY BRISKET WITH POTATOES
I think the slow cooker was invented with brisket in mind. This sweet and savory version is perfection itself because it melts in your mouth. It's very important to buy "first-cut" or "flat-cut" brisket, which has far less fat than other cuts. -Lana Gryga, Glen Flora, Wisconsin

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for scalloped potatoes because they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture. Yukon Gold potatoes are also a good option.
- Slice the potatoes thinly: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for slices that are about 1/8-inch thick.
- Use a mandoline slicer: A mandoline slicer is the best way to get evenly sliced potatoes. If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a sharp knife, but be careful not to slice the potatoes too thickly.
- Layer the potatoes and cheese in a baking dish: Start with a layer of potatoes, then add a layer of cheese, and repeat until all of the potatoes and cheese have been used up. The top layer should be cheese.
- Pour the cream mixture over the potatoes: The cream mixture should be made with milk, cream, salt, and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder or onion powder, to taste.
- Bake the scalloped potatoes until they are golden brown: This will take about 1 hour. You can check the potatoes by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the potatoes are done.
