This is a delicious side dish can be largely assembled ahead: Leave off the last portion of cheese, cover the dish with plastic wrap (pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming), and refrigerate it for up to one day. Remove it 30 minutes before baking, sprinkle with the remaining cheese, and bake as instructed.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush a shallow 2 1/2-quart baking dish with butter. Put the potatoes in a large pot. Whisk the cream, flour, bay leaf, nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon white pepper in a bowl, then pour over the potatoes. Cook over medium heat, carefully stirring occasionally, until the cream just comes to a simmer, about 12 minutes. Continue to simmer, adjusting the heat if necessary and stirring to prevent the bottom from scorching, until the potatoes just begin to soften, about 5 more minutes.
- Transfer the potato mixture to the prepared baking dish; discard the bay leaf. Set the baking dish in a roasting pan and add enough water to come about halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Bake until the potatoes are tender and golden brown, about 1 hour. Remove the baking dish from the water bath and let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Peel and thinly slice the raw potatoes.
- Layer the potatoes in a greased glass baking dish, putting minced onion, salt and pepper, to taste, between layers.
- Pour enough heavy cream over potatoes till it reaches one inch below top of potatoes.
- Bake at 350 degrees until browned and bubbly and fork tender (1-2 hours). If it becomes browned and tender but is still runny stir and place back in oven until thickened. Once this is done, remove from oven and sprinkle the cheese on top and place back in oven until bubbly.
- The beauty of this recipe is that you can use any amount of potatoes you want. Put enough heavy cream to come one inch below top of potatoes.
- I used 5 medium russet potatoes and 3 cups of heavy cream. I then layered mine in a greased 2.75 square glass baking pan. The amount that I fixed cooked for 1 hour 40 minutes.

Tips:
- Use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes. These varieties hold their shape well when cooked and will give you a creamy texture.
- Slice the potatoes thinly and evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you add too many potatoes, they will not cook evenly and will be more likely to stick together.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pan. This will help distribute the heat evenly and prevent the potatoes from scorching.
- Bring the milk and cream mixture to a simmer before adding the potatoes. This will help prevent the milk from curdling.
- Season the potatoes generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Bake the potatoes until they are tender and bubbly. This will usually take about 30 minutes.
- Serve the potatoes immediately. They are best enjoyed hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
Scalloped potatoes are a classic comfort food that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect scalloped potatoes that will be a hit with everyone at your table.
