Asiago And Sage Potatoes Au Gratin Recipes

SAGE POTATOES AU GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a 2-quart baking dish with 1 tablespoon butter.
• Bring the cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the sage to a simmer in a large saucepan over medium-low heat; cook 10 minutes. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and slice 1/8 inch thick (use a mandoline, if you have one).
• Cover the bottom of the prepared dish with about one-quarter of the potatoes, overlapping the slices. Season with salt and cayenne pepper and sprinkle with one-third of the cheese. Repeat the layers 2 more times (potatoes, salt, cayenne, cheese), ending with a layer of potatoes.
• Strain the cream, discarding the sage. Pour the cream into the dish and press the potatoes down. Cut the remaining 2 tablespoons butter into pieces and dot over the potatoes. Cover with aluminum foil and transfer to the oven; reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and bake 40 minutes, then uncover and bake until golden and bubbly, about 20 more minutes.

SAGE POTATOES AU GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter an 8 by 8-inch casserole dish using 1 tablespoon of the butter.
• In a pot, add the heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and sage leaves. Bring to a simmer and steep for 10 minutes. While steeping, peel and slice the potatoes 1/8-inch thick on a mandolin. Begin to layer the potatoes on the bottom of the prepared dish, overlapping each slice by half. When the first layer of potatoes is complete, season with salt, cayenne pepper, and sprinkle with a third of the cheese. Repeat two more times, ending with a final layer of just potatoes.
• Strain the heavy cream and discard the sage. Pour the heavy cream over the casserole, pressing the potatoes down. Dot the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in pieces evenly over the top of the potatoes. Cover with aluminum foil and place in the oven, lowering the temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake, covered, for 40 minutes. Uncover and bake 20 minutes more. Serve hot.

ASIAGO AND SAGE SCALLOPED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large, heavy saucepan, melt the butter; turn temperature to medium high and add the onions, sauté until golden, about 8 minutes.
• Add the garlic, bay leaves, nutmeg, 1 tablespoon salt, and 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, stir well and cook for 1 minute, then add the cream and milk and bring to a boil; remove saucepan from the heat, cover, and set stand for 5 minutes.
• In a medium-sized bowl, toss the grated cheese together with the dry bread crumbs, the olive oil, 1/2 tablespoon of the chopped sage, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper.
• Locate the bay leaves in the onion mixture and remove them, then add the remaining sage and stir.
• In a large bowl, gently toss together the sliced potatoes and onion mixture.
• Spread half of the potato mixture in the bottom of a pan-sprayed (I use an olive oil mister) 2-quart baking dish, then sprinkle 2/3 cup of the bread crumb mixture over the top; spread the remaining potato mixture over, pressing down firmly to pack them down, then cover with remaining bread crumbs.
• Bake at 400 degrees F for about 1 hour, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is a nice, golden brown (if the potatoes brown too quickly, loosely cover the baking dish with foil).
• These can be baked up to 5 hours ahead (let stand at room temperature, not in the refrigerator) of serving time then reheated in the oven (preferably, although doing it in the microwave would work in a pinch but the topping won't be crisp if you do so).
• I found this recipe at Gail's Recipe Swap in 1998 from "peggyor."
