SCALLOPED POTATOES
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.

SCALLOPED POTATOES
This recipe comes from Cheryl Rogowski, whose family has been farming the rich black earth on their patch of Orange County, N.Y., for more than 50 years. They started growing Keuka Golds because the two best-known potatoes in the country - russets and Yukon Golds - did not grow well there. Keukas have yellow flesh, rich flavor and pale skin like Yukons, but they can handle the region's drastic temperature swings, short growing season, divergent soils and uneven rainfall. For this dish, Yukons work equally well.

Steps:
- 1) In stock pot, bring water to boil and then preheat the over to 375 degrees F.
- 2) Slice potatoes 1/4" thick; I prefer them with the skins on. (Can be completed ahead of time).
- 3) Shred all your cheeses and combine, mixing well. Set aside about 1/3 of a cup for topping. (This can be done earlier in the day.).
- 4) Parboil sliced potatoes for 1-2 minutes. They should just be slightly tender. Remove and drain on towel Let them completely dry. (This can be done ahead of time.).
- 5) In small saucepan, combine flour and butter over low heat and make a roux. Then add cream and continue heating on low heat, stirring gently.
- 6) Once the cream is warm, but not boiling, add the cheese in small quantities until all the cheese is melted and incorporated. Add salt, pepper, and paprika. Continue heating until the sauce thickens.
- 6) In a greased 9x9 glass roasting dish, layer potatoes in the bottom, about two layers tall. Pour part of the cheese mixture over this layer. Repeat until all the sauce and potatoes are used.
- 7) Top the potatoes with the 1/3c. of cheese mixture.
- 8) Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes. If the top isn't thoroughly browned after the 45 minutes, increase the temperature to 450 degrees F. and bake until golden brown OR place under the broiler. If you broil them, watch them closely so they don't burn!
- 9) Let them cool before serving.
- Just one note, cheddar cheese is fairly high in oil, so after cooking you can remove some of the excess released from the cooking process fat with a spoon.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are the best choices for scalloped potatoes. They hold their shape well and have a creamy texture when cooked.
- Slice the potatoes thinly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming too mushy.
- Use a mandoline slicer: This is the easiest way to get evenly sliced potatoes.
- Layer the potatoes and sauce: Be sure to overlap the potatoes slightly and pour the sauce over each layer.
- Bake the potatoes covered: This will help them steam and cook evenly.
- Uncover the potatoes for the last 15 minutes of baking: This will help them brown and crisp up.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Chopped parsley, chives, or thyme add a nice touch of flavor and color.
Conclusion:
