How to Make Potato And Parmesan Gratin

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Position oven rack in the middle.
  2. Peel 2 lbs potatoes and thinly slice them to 1/8-inch thickness using a mandoline slicer or sharp knife. Spread slices on a clean kitchen towel to absorb excess moisture.
  3. Lightly sprinkle potatoes with 1 teaspoon sea salt.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup heavy cream and 1/2 cup whole milk.
  5. Melt 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter. Spread half in the bottom of a 3-quart shallow baking dish.
  6. Pour 1/3 cup of the cream mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  7. Arrange 1/5 of the potato slices in a single layer, overlapping slightly. Repeat layering with 1/3 cup of the cream mixture and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (about 1 cup total). Repeat layers until all potatoes and cheese are used, ending with a potato layer.
  8. Drizzle the remaining cream mixture over the top. Dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
  9. Bake uncovered for 120-150 minutes, or until the potatoes are very tender and the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  10. Let the gratin stand for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
