Copiousness of cheesy goodness in Flavoring Parmesan Au Gratin Potatoes with layers of thinly sliced potatoes, Parmesan cheeseflower, and seasoning. Couple it as a spend root cater or alongside meat and potatoes for party.

Accusation - I grew up making au gratin potatoes from a box because that's how my parents prefab them. Fetch concentrate to a boil, add box listing, prepare. It wasn't until I bought a handheld mandoline (affiliate fastening) I started making my own because I can never portion the potatoes thinly (and consistently) sufficiency for an intact saucer.

That begs the close meditate - what's the difference between scalloped and au gratin? After outlay numerous hours researching and indication through recipes, nobody else knows either. The main number is au gratin has cheeseflower time scalloped doesn't, but most recipes, including my prosperous cheesy stovetop scalloped potatoes, uses cheeseflower.

Other number is au gratin has breadcrumbs on top, but most au gratin recipes didn't let breadcrumbs. I've also seen recipes shorthand as au gratin potatoes vs. potatoes au gratin. In ending, the repose of the humans doesn't experience the difference between scalloped and au gratin.
