SWEET POTATO AND GRUYèRE GRATIN
This rich, cheese-laden gratin is a more savory take on the usual Thanksgiving sweet potato casserole, with sage and rosemary giving it an herbal bite. If you'd like to make it partway ahead, you can peel and slice the potatoes the day before; store in a sealable plastic bag in the fridge. You can also simmer the cream mixture (don't add eggs) and grate the cheese the day before as well, storing them covered in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees and generously butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan or shallow gratin dish. Butter a piece of foil large enough to cover top of pan. Sprinkle Parmesan all over bottom of pan.
- In a medium pot, bring cream, sage, rosemary, garlic, nutmeg and a pinch of salt to a simmer. Simmer until reduced by 1/4, about 10 minutes.
- In a large, heatproof bowl, whisk eggs just enough to break them up. Slowly pour hot cream into eggs to combine, whisking while pouring, and reserve the mixture.
- Meanwhile, using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice the potatoes into 1/8-inch-thick rounds.
- Place 1 layer of potatoes in the pan, slightly overlapping as you go, using about a third of the slices. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste, then pour 1/3 of the egg mixture over potatoes. Top with 1/2 cup Gruyère. Repeat with another layer of potatoes, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, pepper and 1/3 egg mixture. Top with 1/2 cup Gruyère. Top with remaining potatoes, 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper to taste, and remaining egg mixture (but not the remaining cheese). Press down to compact the potatoes. Cover with foil and bake until potatoes are tender, about 40 minutes, then remove foil, sprinkle top with remaining 2/3 cup Gruyère and bake until browned and bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly, then serve.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Rub a small amount of the olive oil on the bottom of a casserole dish 81/2 inches. Shingle rutabaga slices to cover the bottom of the casserole overlapping the slices by no more than 1/2-inch. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Thinly slice one of the potatoes* lengthwise and shingle the potatoes over the rutabaga then season lightly with salt and pepper. Pat or mist lightly with some of the oil. Spread 1/3 of the onions evenly over the potatoes. Layer the parsnip over the onions, then more potatoes. Pat or mist lightly with some of the oil. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Repeat the layering and seasoning with rutabaga, the potato, then onion, and finally potato. If there are any root slices left over, alternate rows of roots and potatoes on the final layer. Pat or mist lightly with oil, season with salt and pepper, cover tightly and place in the oven. Bake for 45 minutes. Remove the cover, pat or mist lightly with the remaining oil, then sprinkle over with the chopped herbs. Bake, uncovered for another 15 to 20 minutes or until the top layer browns nicely. Allow to set 10 to 15 minutes then slice and serve.
- *Slice the potatoes to retain their starch and nutrients. This also will prevent then from browning.
