SAVORY SCALLOPED POTATOES

Steps:

• Thinly slice 6 Yukon potatoes (we used a mandoline for an even consistent cut).
• In a saucepan, melt butter on medium heat. Add in flour and whisk until smooth. Add bay leaf and begin to add the Almond Breeze while constantly stirring with a whisk. Add garlic, nutmeg, and thyme. Mix in Parmesan cheese and vegetable stock and bring the mixture to a simmer to thicken. Salt and pepper to taste. Remove bay leaf and remove almond milk mixture from heat.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease your casserole dish with a nonstick spray.
• Lay half of the sliced potatoes on the bottom of the casserole dish. Pour half of the Almond Breeze mixture over the the potatoes. Repeat the process until you have a second layer. Spread the Cheddar on top and place casserole dish into the oven. Bake for 45 minutes or until potatoes are tender and fully cooked.

POTEE SAVOYARD

Steps:

• Heat a Dutch oven or other large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high. Swirl in oil. Add onion, cut-sides down, and sausages; cook, turning sausages a few times, until browned in places, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer sausages (but not onion) to a plate.
• Season pork shoulder generously with salt and pepper; add to pot with ham hock and 3 quarts water. Bundle parsley, thyme, and bay leaf with twine and add to pot. Bring to a boil, skimming impurities from surface. Reduce heat to low; simmer, covered, until pork is tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Transfer pork and ham to plate with sausages; discard herb bundle and onion. Skim impurities and excess fat from surface of broth.
• Add potatoes, carrots, celery, pumpkin, cabbage, leeks, and browned sausages to pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, until vegetables are just tender, 15 to 18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, shred pork and any meat on hock into bite-size pieces, discarding skin, bones, and excess fat. Return meat and any accumulated juices to pot; season to taste. Serve stew with parsley leaves and cheese toasts on the side.

POTATOES AU'GRATIN - GRATIN SAVOYARD

Steps:

• Peel garlic cloves. Slice them in half and rub the freshly sliced sides onto a pie plate to leave a garlic flavor. Butter the pie plate.
• Peel and slice the potatoes very thin (1/8" thick or less) with a food processor or a careful hand.
• Boil the beef broth with the leftover garlic cloves.
• Layer half of the potatoes in the bottom of the pie plate. Top with half of the cheese. Liberally salt and pepper. Repeat this process for a second layer. (Don't overflow the pie plate, use as much as you can so that it fits properly with some room at the top for the broth to boil).
• Remove the garlic cloves and pour most of the boiling broth over the potatoes and cheese. The broth should come almost to the top of the potatoes. Save leftover broth to add near the end.
• Microwave the potatoes on high until they are done. You should be able to sink a fork into the slices with ease. This usually takes 8 minutes (but up to 15 for larger slices or more potatoes).
• Place the dish in a 350 degree oven for about ½ hour to brown. Pour in remaining broth if desired.

Repeat once. Top with remaining 1/3 of the potatoes. Sprinkle the nutmeg over the top. Pour the stock over all, sprinkle with Parmesan. cover with foil and bake at 425F (215C) for 30 minutes.
