FAQs

 

Can I freeze Scalloped Potatoes?

I wouldn’t advise freezing the casserole, though. Once thawed, neither the potatoes nor the sauce would be very tasty.

 

Can I substitute the sweet potatoes?

Yukon Gold potatoes will work well in place of the sweet potatoes, however sweet potatoes pair better with this cream.

 

Is the casserole sweet?

In order to preserve the natural sweetness of the sweet potatoes, we reduced the amount of salt in the recipe. Taste and add additional salt if you’d like a savourier dish. You can also incorporate any preferred seasonings, such rosemary or thyme, into the cream.

 

How long do I bake Scalloped Potatoes?

The baking time will vary depending on how thick the slices are. Sweet potatoes should be sliced extremely thinly. Mandolin slicers are useful. Because every oven is unique, make sure it’s ready by using a knife. When cooked, the potatoes should be easily pierced.
