This simple, comforting potato casserole was one of my favorite foods growing up, and it would have been a favorite of mine as an adult, if I hadn’t gone to culinary school. Happily, I’ve rediscovered how great this significantly less rich milk-based version is, and I’m very excited to be sharing it with you. Enjoy!

"Until they invent a time machine, recipes are as close as we'll get." That's actually an incredibly beautiful thought there. It made me a little misty eyed, I have to admit. A sincere thanks for that, Chef John. I'm gonna go make some biscuits right after this potato gratin now, just like my Nan would've.

@DanielMores 3 жыл бұрын

Commented before I saw your comment. Yep, I got misty eyed too. I actually cook a few things just like my grandma did, including the "unique" rituals that went with them like poking a bread with the back of a wooden spoon or sticking cloves into an onion when making soup or the way she put the potatoes on the baking tray when making grilled chicken ... little things where I remember her more than maybe going to the cemetery.

Yep. Right in the feels, but his voice never cracks and it's business as usual. His mom died last year? Year before? Recent enough to be a daily thought. My mom's still around to whip up breakfast skillets for her growing (41-year-old) boy when he visits, but the grandmas have since gone on. And no one, not myself nor anyone, will ever replicate the love they cooked up.
