Notes
- mandoline slicer
- If using ground nutmeg instead of fresh, stir it into the heavy cream before pouring over the potatoes.
- Try your best to cut the potatoes as thinly an evenly as possible. Thicker potato slices will take longer to cook, so the thinner the better. A mandoline slicer is the best way to achieve perfectly even, thin slices.If your slices are uneven, you could end up with a few bites of hard potato.
- If the potatoes are still undercooked and the top is getting too brown, cover them with foil for the remainder of the cooking time.
- Allow the gratin to cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting to allow it to set up.
