Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 cup raw cashews
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
2 slices rustic bread, torn into small pieces
2 small rutabagas (1 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into about 1/8-inch-thick slices
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
4 teaspoons chopped fresh marjoram
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Make cashew cream: In a medium bowl, pour boiling water over cashews and let sit until they soften, at least 15 minutes and up to 30. Stir in yeast. Puree mixture in a blender on highest setting until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes. Seasonwith salt to taste. Set aside.
  • Make breadcrumbs: Pulse bread in a food processor until coarsely ground. Set aside. (You should have 1 cup.)
  • Assemble gratin: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cover bottom of an 8-inch-round baking dish with a single layer of rutabaga slices, overlapping edges and working in a circle. Season with salt, pepper, andsome of the chopped herbs. Add another layer and season with salt, pepper, and herbs. Pour in about 1/3 of cashew cream -- enough to cover both layers. Continue until baking dish is full. Pour in remainingcashew cream. Sprinkle nutmeg over top layer. Toss breadcrumbs with oil in a small bowl. Top gratin with breadcrumbs.
  • Bake on a rimmed baking sheet until rutabagas are tender when pierced with a sharp knife and breadcrumbs are golden brown, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

This gratin was a bit too heavy for my taste. I think I would use less cheese next time.

I'm not a huge fan of rutabagas, but this gratin was actually pretty good. The cheesy sauce really helped to mask the rutabaga flavor.

This gratin was easy to make and turned out great. I used a combination of sharp cheddar and Gruyère cheese, and it was so flavorful. I served it with a side of roasted Brussels sprouts and it was a delicious meal.

The gratin was a bit too runny for my liking. I think I would reduce the amount of milk next time.

This rutabaga gratin was a hit with my family! The rutabagas were tender and flavorful, and the cheesy sauce was perfectly gooey and browned. I will definitely be making this again.
