Yield Makes 10 (side-dish) servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 bunch fresh thyme
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 dried bay leaf
3 pounds boiling potatoes, such as Yukon Gold, peeled and cut crosswise into 1/8-inch slices
2 tablespoons sea salt
5 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed with back of knife
4 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup fresh horseradish, grated
1 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese, coarsely grated

Steps:

  • Place rack in middle position and preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Generously butter a 2 1/2- to 3-quart gratin dish or other shallow baking dish.
  • Make a bouquet garni by wrapping thyme, peppercorns, and bay leaf in 6-inch square of cheese cloth and securing with kitchen string.
  • In heavy, 6-quart saucepan, combine potatoes, bouquet garni, salt, garlic cloves, and cream. Set over moderate heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until potatoes can just be pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes. Using slotted spoon, remove bouquet garni and garlic and discard. Stir in horseradish.
  • Spread potato mixture in buttered dish and sprinkle with cheese. Bake until top is golden brown and potatoes are tender, about 30 to 40 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.

HORSERADISH POTATO GRATIN

Adapted from Real Simple magazine. If you choose to use Russet potatoes (which the recipe originally called for), they will need to be peeled. I usually decrease the amount a little and bake this in a pie plate. Since it ends up being stacked 2 partial rows high, I can skip the first 25 minute bake and just bake uncovered for 1 hour and about 15 minutes. The deeper the potatoes are stacked, the longer it will take to bake. Also, I tend to substitute half & half for heavy cream and that works just fine in this recipe.

Tips:

  • For a creamier gratin, use heavy cream or half-and-half instead of milk.
  • If you want a crispy top, sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese or breadcrumbs over the gratin before baking.
  • To make sure the potatoes are cooked through, pierce them with a fork before serving. They should be tender but still hold their shape.
  • Serve the gratin immediately, or it will start to lose its crispy top.
