Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are the best choices for scalloped potatoes as they hold their shape well and absorb the flavors of the cream sauce.
  • Slice the potatoes thinly and evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Use a sharp knife or a mandoline to get thin, uniform slices.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish: Make sure there is enough space between the potato slices so that they can cook evenly.
  • Use a good quality cheese: A sharp cheddar cheese or a blend of cheeses will give the scalloped potatoes a rich and flavorful taste.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: They should be tender but still slightly firm in the center.

Conclusion:

Old Irish Scalloped Potatoes are a classic comfort food dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect scalloped potatoes that will be a hit with your family and friends.
