Tips for Perfect Scalloped Potatoes and Ham:
- Choose the Right Potatoes: Use a starchy potato such as Yukon Gold or Russet for a creamy texture. Waxy potatoes like Red or New potatoes will hold their shape better but may not be as creamy.
- Slice Potatoes Thinly and Evenly: This ensures even cooking and a tender texture. If the slices are too thick, they may not cook through properly.
- Use a Heavy-Bottomed Baking Dish: This will help to distribute heat evenly and prevent the potatoes from burning. Avoid using a glass baking dish as it may cause uneven cooking.
- Layer the Potatoes and Ham Evenly: Make sure the potatoes and ham are evenly distributed throughout the baking dish to ensure even cooking.
- Use a Bechamel Sauce: A creamy bechamel sauce adds a rich and flavorful base to the scalloped potatoes. Make sure to use a roux that is cooked until it is golden brown for a deeper flavor.
- Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season the potatoes, ham, and bechamel sauce generously. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all great options.
- Bake Until Golden Brown: Bake the scalloped potatoes and ham until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. This usually takes about 45-50 minutes.
- Let Rest Before Serving: Allow the scalloped potatoes and ham to rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the flavors meld together and make the dish easier to serve.
