Notes

  • Storage: Once cooled, store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat in the oven for the best results.
  • Freezing: Consider freezing portions before baking. Wrap tightly in foil and freeze for up to a month. Bake directly from frozen, adding extra time.
  • Pairing: Serve with a fresh green salad to balance the richness of the gratin.
  • Herbs and Spices: Add a pinch of nutmeg or fresh herbs for added depth of flavor.
  • Cheese Variations: Try different cheeses like Gruyère or cheddar for a unique twist.
