How to Make Scalloped Potatoes
Hey there, fellow foodies! Today, I want to share a family recipe that’s very close to my heart – Grandma’s Scalloped Potatoes. This dish has been a hit at family gatherings for as long as I can remember. It brings back so many wonderful memories of laughter, love, and warm Sunday dinners with the whole gang. Let me take you on a journey to recreate this classic, creamy, and oh-so-delicious comfort food!
The Creamy Dreamy Sauce
Now comes the secret to the creamy goodness – the sauce! It’s like a magic potion that turns ordinary potatoes into a dreamy dish. We mix flour, milk, and chicken broth in a pan, whisking it all together. Keep whisking, my friend, until it’s all smooth and velvety. That’s when the real magic happens!
Layering the Love
Alright, now it’s time to put all the goodness together. We take those thinly sliced potatoes and layer them with care in a baking dish. Each layer gets a sprinkle of salt and pepper to make sure they’re perfectly seasoned. And then, here comes the best part – we pour that luscious cream sauce over the potatoes, letting it seep into every nook and cranny. Trust me, this is where the taste buds start doing a happy dance!
Patience is Key
As much as we want to gobble it all up right away, we have to be patient. Into the oven, it goes, and we wait while the magic happens. The kitchen fills up with that amazing aroma, and we know it’s going to be worth the wait!
The Golden Finish
After some time in the oven, we take off the cover and reveal the beautiful golden top. But we’re not done yet! We give it a quick trip to the broiler to get that perfect crispy finish on top. Oh, man, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!
