MOM'S SCALLOPED POTATO GRATIN



Mom's Scalloped Potato Gratin image

These scalloped potatoes were one of my favorite foods growing up, but then I went to culinary school and learned, according to classical methods, how it was "supposed" to be made--and that's how I've been making it ever since. But recently, for whatever reason, I went back and tried to recreate my mother's version and was reminded of why I loved hers in the first place.

Time 1h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 large russet potatoes, or more to taste
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
¾ cup grated sharp white Cheddar cheese
3 ½ cups whole milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish with 2 tablespoons butter and set aside.
  • Peel potatoes and cut at a 45-degree angle into 1/4-inch thick round slices.
  • Arrange 1/3 of the potato slices in an even layer in the bottom of the prepared dish. Season the layer very generously with salt, and sparingly with the freshly ground black pepper, and cayenne, if using. Top evenly with 1/3 of the Cheddar cheese. Repeat this process two more times for a total of three layers of potatoes, except for the last third of the cheese. Slowly and carefully pour in the milk, without upsetting the layers. The milk should almost, but not quite, cover the potatoes.
  • Top with remaining Cheddar cheese and place the casserole dish on a sheet pan to catch any drips.
  • Bake in the center of the preheated oven until potatoes are tender and the top is well browned and bubbling, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

I only get to enjoy these potatoes two times a year, Christmas and Thanksgiving. I am 2 1/2 months pregnant and have been craving them lately. I think anyone who loves comfort classics will enjoy this recipe as it goes great with anything especially prime rib, turkey, or ham. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

SCALLOPED POTATOES



Scalloped Potatoes image

The perfect side dish to an elegant or celebratory main course, or the welcome addition to any potluck supper, scalloped potatoes are one of those dishes that seem complicated, but are deceptively simple. You'll need to put in a bit of "peeler time" to get the spuds ready for the oven, but after that it's just a long bake and a short standing period to let the sauce thicken. Then, voila! you're ready to serve.

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: The thinner the potatoes are sliced, the more evenly they will cook. Aim for slices that are about 1/8-inch thick.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your scalloped potatoes. Use a sharp cheddar cheese or a combination of cheddar and Parmesan cheese.
  • Season the potatoes well: Don't be afraid to season the potatoes liberally with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When layering the potatoes in the baking dish, don't overcrowd them. The potatoes need space to cook evenly.
  • Bake the potatoes until they are tender: The baking time will vary depending on the thickness of the potatoes and the size of the baking dish. Bake the potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork.

Conclusion:

Scalloped potatoes are a classic comfort food that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make scalloped potatoes that are creamy, cheesy, and delicious.
