GOURMET SWEET POTATO CLASSIC
Once you taste this, you won't ever go back to the marshmallow-topped variety! I have peeled and cooked in the microwave, and also boiled the sweet potatoes. They taste the same no matter how you cook them. So, use the technique that works best for you!

SWEET POTATO AND GRUYèRE GRATIN
This rich, cheese-laden gratin is a more savory take on the usual Thanksgiving sweet potato casserole, with sage and rosemary giving it an herbal bite. If you'd like to make it partway ahead, you can peel and slice the potatoes the day before; store in a sealable plastic bag in the fridge. You can also simmer the cream mixture (don't add eggs) and grate the cheese the day before as well, storing them covered in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees and generously butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan or shallow gratin dish. Butter a piece of foil large enough to cover top of pan. Sprinkle Parmesan all over bottom of pan.
- In a medium pot, bring cream, sage, rosemary, garlic, nutmeg and a pinch of salt to a simmer. Simmer until reduced by 1/4, about 10 minutes.
- In a large, heatproof bowl, whisk eggs just enough to break them up. Slowly pour hot cream into eggs to combine, whisking while pouring, and reserve the mixture.
- Meanwhile, using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice the potatoes into 1/8-inch-thick rounds.
- Place 1 layer of potatoes in the pan, slightly overlapping as you go, using about a third of the slices. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste, then pour 1/3 of the egg mixture over potatoes. Top with 1/2 cup Gruyère. Repeat with another layer of potatoes, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, pepper and 1/3 egg mixture. Top with 1/2 cup Gruyère. Top with remaining potatoes, 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper to taste, and remaining egg mixture (but not the remaining cheese). Press down to compact the potatoes. Cover with foil and bake until potatoes are tender, about 40 minutes, then remove foil, sprinkle top with remaining 2/3 cup Gruyère and bake until browned and bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly, then serve.

GOURMET SWEET POTATO GRATIN WITH CHILES AND CREAM (CASSEROLE)
Always a hit at a cocktail buffet, holiday time or not!!! If you want to go lighter, cut one cup of the cream; however the volume of the sweet potatoes absorbs the richness of the full amount. Recipe is from Zanne Zakroff of Gourmet magazine.

Tips:
- Choose the right type of sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size so they cook evenly. Avoid any potatoes that are soft, bruised, or have cracks in the skin.
- Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to slice the sweet potatoes and prevent them from breaking apart.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the sweet potatoes, don't overcrowd the pan or they will not cook evenly. Cook them in batches if necessary.
- Use a variety of cheeses: This recipe calls for a combination of Parmesan, Gruyère, and cream cheese. You can also use other types of cheese, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or fontina.
- Bake until golden brown: Bake the gratin until the top is golden brown and the sweet potatoes are tender. This usually takes about 30-35 minutes.
Conclusion:
This gourmet sweet potato gratin is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet potatoes are roasted until tender and then topped with a creamy cheese sauce. The addition of chiles and cream adds a touch of spice and richness. This gratin is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
