Potatoes au Gratin

Potato sides are forgiving, but texture matters. Cook until tender, then season while warm so the flavors settle into the potatoes instead of sitting on top.

Gourmet Geek Tip

Slice the potatoes evenly so they cook at the same rate. | Let the gratin rest for 5 minutes so the sauce can thicken. | Serve with: Roast chicken, pork chops, or a crisp green salad.
