Quick Tips
- 1
Slice potatoes thin and even
Aim for 1/8-inch slices so they cook through in the same time; a mandoline or the slicing side of a box grater keeps them uniform.
- 2
Warm the cream first
Heat the half and half or cream until steaming before pouring it over the potatoes; it shaves 10 to 15 minutes off the bake.
- 3
Cover then uncover
Bake covered with foil for the first 45 minutes so the potatoes soften, then uncover 20 to 25 minutes to brown the cheese on top.
- 4
Let it rest
Give the pan 15 minutes on the counter before serving so the sauce thickens instead of running across the plate.
