Tips:
- Use a variety of potatoes. This will give your scalloped potatoes a more complex flavor and texture. Yukon Gold and Russet potatoes are both good choices.
- Slice the potatoes thinly. This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you add too many potatoes, they won't cook evenly.
- Use a flavorful cheese. Gruyère, cheddar, and Parmesan are all good choices.
- Don't overcook the potatoes. They should be tender but still have a slight bite to them.
- Serve the scalloped potatoes immediately. They are best when they are hot and bubbly.
