Tips
Choose starchy potatoes like Yukon Gold, Russet, or Idaho for the best results. These varieties hold their shape well when sliced and baked, creating a creamy and satisfying texture.
The potatoes must be evenly sliced. Aim for slices around 1/8 to ¼ inch thick. This ensures even cooking and allows the creamy sauce to penetrate each layer.
Use full-fat scream for a thicker, creamier sauce.
For an extra layer of savory goodness, consider adding a touch of minced garlic to the cream mixture.
