Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Unsalted butter, softened, for the baking dish
2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/8-inch thick
3 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper

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.

Tips:

  • Use thin slices of potatoes: Thinner slices will cook more evenly and quickly. Aim for slices that are about ⅛-inch thick.
  • Layer the potatoes evenly: Don't overcrowd the baking dish. If the potatoes are too tightly packed, they won't cook evenly.
  • Use a flavorful cheese: The type of cheese you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Use a cheese that melts well and has a strong flavor, such as cheddar, Parmesan, or Gruyère.
  • Season the potatoes well: Don't be afraid to season the potatoes generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Bake the potatoes until they are tender: The baking time will vary depending on the thickness of the potatoes and the temperature of your oven. But generally, the potatoes are done when they are tender when pierced with a fork.

Conclusion:

Scalloped potatoes are a classic comfort food that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying dish that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give scalloped potatoes a try. You won't be disappointed!
