Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter room temperature
  • 2 ½ pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 2 ½ cups heavy cream
  • 1 ½ cups whole milk
  • 1 garlic clove smashed
  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 4 ounces Gruyere cheese
  • ⅛ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

Instructions
 

  • Put a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a 2-quart baking dish by coating the bottom and sides with butter.
  • Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin slices, about 1/8 of an inch thick. Drain the slices completely after placing them in a large bowl of cold water.
  • Simmer garlic, heavy cream, and milk in a wide, large saucepan.
  • Toss in potatoes, salt, and pepper, and keep to a simmer, turning regularly, for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  • With a slotted spoon, put half the potatoes into the baking dish and top with half the cheese.
  • Toss the remaining potatoes with the cream mixture, and then add them to a baking dish. Top with the remaining cheese and set on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until bubbling and the top is golden brown.
  • Sprinkle grated nutmeg on top before serving.

Notes

  • Use Yukon Gold potatoes, which are naturally creamy and flavorful.
  • Cut the potatoes into uniform pieces; this will help them cook evenly and create a pleasant texture.
  • Simmer for a while so the potatoes may absorb all the flavor from the cream mixture.
  • To get that perfect, crispy finish, leave it in the oven until it’s a deep golden color.
