looks delish. Great presentation. I love that casserole dish.

I have been looking for a good recipe to Scalloped Potatoes. Thanks, this is what I want.

We only ever got scalloped potatoes on special occasions like Christmas or Easter (and always accompanied by ham, coleslaw, and homemade baked beans). As kids we would crowd around the oven door, drooling, so impatient for dinner. Mom always made them the same way - a layer of potatoes, dot with butter, sprinkle over a tablespoon or so of flour. Repeat until the dish is full. Pour in milk until you can just see it. Bake at 350 for an hour or so - test with a fork after an hour. Line the cookie sheet under your casserole dish with foil because the milk ALWAYS boils over. BEST scalloped potatoes EVER. I can't decide if I love them so much because of how wonderful they taste or because of the oh so happy memories associated with them.

Those sound like some wonderful memories. You remind me of waiting for Mom's custard pie to come out of the oven at Christmas. Thanks for some fond memories.-Dennis

I made this dish last night. I made enough to give two neighbors a dish also. It was the best scalloped potatoes I’ve ever made. I did put thyme and chunks of ham in mine to make it a meal with added veggies. I uncovered it after an hour to brown the top, but it required 2 hours to bake. Thank you for sharing.

The best explanation and easy to follow. Thank you

I just bumped into your recipes today. I very much liked your scalloped potato dish. It's the best, I'm sure. I grew up with my Mum's version, very stripped down. She just peeled and sliced about 8 idaho bakers, dotted some butter in a dish, arranged the potatoes all around, and added one whole can of evaporated milk, salt and pepper, bake and serve. Yours is better! Thanks a lot!

Great easy recipe, thank you so much and the way you explained..Perfect.

Thanks, Dennis. To be fair to mandolins... the plastic hand protector is a boon but IMHO is too unwieldy for a whole 'spud'. For the first 3/4 I hold it in a gardening glove and cut away, swapping to the holder for the last half inch only, to protect my ancient digits! The mandolin flies along that way. It's so good for onions and jumbo garlic, too, cut super thin before a low, slow oven drying, then ground to make onion or garlic powder for rubs, etc.. Much better than store bought.

You are a scientist. You have a brilliant and focused mind. Really enjoyed listening to you, because people like you are teaching without realizing it. Thank you

"Home Mobile Gourmet" What a charming name! I already suscribed. I love your high quality cooking utensils, the knowledge of the recipe history, your beautiful aprons display! Your French Names for dishes! Your voice modulations and pace! I almost swear you are a Libra!

I love how you arranged your potatoes on top & how brown & crispy the top looks. I think scalloped potatoes need that textural contrast. Also I think you sliced your potatoes to the perfect thickness. Often folks don't cut theirs thin enough.

Omg that looks absolutely delicious! Thanks for sharing!

Omg I finally found you! I did your recipe a while ago and it was the best and I didn’t safe you and finally I found you 😷😆

That is pretty well how I make them. I learned how to make them back in the 1980's from a cookbook I have called More Food that Really Schmecks, written by a woman called Edna Staebler who lived among the Amish in the Kitchener/Waterloo area of Ontario. But also learned bechemel with grated cheese in grade 7 home economics way back when we were learning how to make mac n cheese. Oh something I made a few days back with some frozen cauliflower that I blanched and froze about a month ago. Pour that cheese sauce over blanched cauliflower and sprinkle a little bread or cracker crumbs on top and bake. YUM YUM. Very important to learn bechemel as there is a number of things you can do with it.

She also wrote Food that Really Schmecks, you may want to get that one to. I don't have that one. I have collected a few cookbooks over the years. The More Food that Really Schmecks was the first book I owned. My prize possession is a book that belonged to my mother, that my sister has got my mother's copy and I found a copy at a yard sale. It is called The Modern Family Cookbook by Meta Givens. It has some really old recipes in it and is an interesting read.

That casserole is Gorgous!

Great dish for using up leftover meat and or odd bits of cheese from the freezer, my grandmother taught me to make it. Hers was more saucey and always had crumbled crispy bacon added (gramps loved his bacon) to the cheese sauce, with added leftover meat it was a main not a side. Thanks for the video and the fond memories it brought back. Take care god bless.

Great video. I'd like to get that slicer, can you tell me what brand it is? Thanks.

Alas, it was made by a local artisan. There is a flaw on the underside, thus I bought it at a very low price. One of a kind.

I'm a pro at scalloped potatos.. One time I had no milk but was already in the process of making it. I used chicken brother and I couldn't even notice a difference lol.

How long do you cook sculpt potatoes

This sounds like a good idea. You could do a standard Shepherd's Pie recipe (I have a Welsh Shepherd's Pie recipe here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/anh5lLZul8anc6w.html), but rather than using mashed potatoes on top you could arrange potato slices in a scalloped pattern. Bake it long enough to cook the potatoes. I might try this. Thanks. -Dennis

Cool video

Lack of "scalloped" potatoes recipes is true but.. I found the "escalloped" spelling in some very old cookbooks. When I was a girl they were, in fact, referred to as escalloped potatoes. Any way you call them, I love em. Au gratin in French dictionary is light brown crust of bread crumbs and cheese over.

Sometimes when I make sauce like that the cheddar just clumps up into a rubbery ball, any Idea what causes this?

@MobileHomeGourmet

7 жыл бұрын

Yes. You might be stirring it too much. Try stirring just long enough for the cheese to melt and blend in. Also, do this off the heat. The flame under a pot can heat the cheese too much and cause it to stick and become stringy. I hope that helps.-Dennis

Love that white pot.

In County Durham England it's just sliced potato sliced onion tons of and whole milk. Got to admit it sometimes cuddles but what the hell it's still my last meal wish . No cheese please.. Its sometimes called freckled potatoes.

Simple and straight to the point. Love it.

Added the right amount of butter, flour and milk yet the sauce hasn't thickened before i added the cheese. Is there something i missed?

Nice potatoes..

When potatoes are cut they start to turn brown (oxidize). That would ruin the appearance of your dish. It might be better to assemble and bake in advance, then reheat the following day. I hope that helps. -Dennis

Dennis- Thanks for clearing up the definition of scalloped potatoes. My Mom taught me that scalloped potatoes was with ham, and potatoes with cheese was Au gratin potatoes. So it is scalloped potatoes due to arrangements of potatoes. Not scalloped because she (mom) just put the ham in it. The corrected way is scalloped potatoes and ham. Or scalloped potatoes without ham.

@MobileHomeGourmet

You and me both. For most of my life I thought potatoes au gratin was potatoes with cheese sauce. I like the idea of the ham. In one of Julia Child's TV shows she made a scalloped potatoes main dish by including cut up sausage. One of my future projects is to use linguiça. I just need to figure out a sauce. Nothing comes to mind yet.-Dennis

Looks delicious but I want more cheesy sauce

I had that same misconception for many years, decades actually. I learned only recently that "au gratin" simply means "browned on top." Cheese and/or breadcrumbs can be sprinkled on top and browned, and that would be au gratin too. Thanks for comment. -Dennis
