THE BEST SCALLOPED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x9 baking dish with cooking spray, set aside.
• Slice the potatoes very thin, 1/8th of an inch. I suggest using a mandolin for this. The potatoes need to be the same thickness so they all cook at the same time.
• Place the sliced potatoes into a large bowl with cold water, set aside.
• In a medium-sized skillet over medium-low heat, add the butter and melt. Add the onions, salt, and pepper, stirring occasionally cook until the onions are just softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the garlic and thyme, cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute, slowly pour in the milk and whisk constantly to ensure no lumps form.
• Whisk in the heavy cream. Stirring occasionally, let this mixture come to a simmer, once it starts to bubble the littlest bit, take it off the heat. Stir in half of the gouda until melted.
• Drain the potatoes. Place half of the potatoes into the bottom of the baking dish.
• Pour half of the cheese sauce on top. Sprinkle half of the parmesan cheese on top.
• Add the rest of the potatoes on top. Top with the remaining sauce. Add the rest of the gouda and parmesan on top.
• Bake covered with foil for 45 minutes then remove the foil and cook for about another 30 minutes (until the potatoes are fork-tender.)
• Garnish with parsley, optional.

THE BEST SCALLOPED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch square baking dish with unsalted butter.
• Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1/8-inch-thick slices using a mandoline or sharp knife.
• Add the sliced potatoes, heavy cream, whole milk, 2 tablespoons butter, garlic, thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the nutmeg to a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and almost cooked through but still hold their shape, about 5 minutes. (They should not be soft and falling apart.) Remove the saucepan from the heat.
• Add the Gruyere and Parmesan, stirring gently to combine. Pour the potato mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake until the top is light golden brown and the potatoes are cooked through and tender, about 45 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

SCALLOPED POTATOES AND COUNTRY HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8-by-8-inch flameproof baking dish with cooking spray.
• In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions and saute until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the flour and stir until combined. Cook 1 to 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste. Add the garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, the cayenne and mustard powder. Whisk in the milk. Allow to cook and thicken slightly, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Line the baking dish with a crisscrossed layer of country ham, then a layer of slightly overlapping potatoes, then about 2/3 cup sauce. Repeat the layering until all the ingredients are used. You should have a total of 3 sets of layers, ending with the sauce on top. Top with the Gruyere and cover with foil. Bake until the potatoes are tender, about 1 hour.
• Remove the foil and spoon off any fat that has pooled in the baking dish, if needed. Switch the oven to broil and broil until light golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with green onions before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Rub the garlic around the inside of an 8 by 8 by 2-inch casserole dish and let it dry. Reserve the remaining garlic. Rub the butter around the inside of the dish. Reserve the remaining butter.
• Peel and thinly slice the potatoes on a mandoline or vegetable slicer (about 1/8-inch-thick slices).
• In a medium saucepan, combine the garlic, butter, potatoes, half-and-half, salt, pepper to taste, and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, lower the heat to medium-high, and cook, stirring, until the mixture has thickened, about 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to the prepared dish. Shake the pan so the potatoes are distributed evenly.
