Make These Instead Of Mashed Potatoes, You'll Thank You

[@thatdudecancook]

If you have potatoes and cream in the fridge ready for mashed potatoes you are now going to have to decide if you will make these instead…

[@TheLastGasStation]

it's a question of patience for me. do i have the patience to follow this through or do i want to mash potatoes w a lot of fat and salt and stuff my face immediately? it could happen at any moment in the process of making these. lol.

[@askingbetterquestions]

May you and the good Sergeant have a warm and wonderful holiday season!

[@MeatMachine212]

My dog was concerned when you started beating the fridge

[@bfg3890]

Why not just leave the skins on and slice them? Genuine question here.

[@andrina118]

You are a bit of me; I love the way you try to optimise every stage of an already classic recipe, you are such a *chef* !

[@seantaylor2046]

Transformative. Delicious. The guiltiest of pleasures. I needed 20 mins to par boil the potatoes in Reno at 4500 alt. First batch was too al dente. Also, avoid the 10 min steep by making a Bouquet garnii with the herbs and add it to the par boil. Nuts good !

[@sandy-mr5gj]

your dauphinoise potatoes is i believe the best recipe i've ever seen. ty

[@antonydevadass4856]

Finally did the rosemary salt. You are right, a whole different dimension. Thank you.

[@FENmap]

Could we get a kitchen/drawer tour? I figure this is your studio kitchen because we miss the dog, but man is it close to what I would like and I'm intrigued to see how you organized.

[@WhiteCleats]

Made these for my New Year's Eve dinner party. LOVED them. I looked around at a lot of recipes and almost none put in the effort of infusing the cream with aromatics like you do here. It makes all the difference -- you get a far greater depth of flavor than the dauphinoise au gratin I've made in the past. Thank you!

[@mrlarry999]

This dish is new to me. I like the single serving idea. I could make extras and freeze a few for later consumption.

[@judeirwin2222]

If you freeze them, be aware that the cream will split when defrosted. Not nice. I suggest eating them fresh and hot. Freeze something else.

[@mattmcgriff5952]

Once again taking it to the next level! I’ll be preparing filets tonight following your methods to serve for our Christmas dinner. Thank you Sonny for the inspiration to make food more enjoyable!

[@thatdudecancook]

Happy Cooking!

Making these tonight to go along with some grilled meatball sandwiches. My wife is on a big potato kick recently so these should go over real well…

[@davidbuben3262]

I've made these several times now. Incredibly good. Along with your melted onions, brussel sprouts, and roast chicken recipes. (Drool) Also a shout out to my Benriner mandolin, that I bought through your channel several years ago. It replaced my cheap Oxo mando of death, that I sliced myself several times with (don't drink and cook). I've never cut myself with the Benriner. Much more stable, well made and worth the price.

[@monkeygraborange]

“...don’t drink and cook.” Are you mad? Drinking and cooking are a match made in heaven! Everyone knows that 10 fingers is excessive!

[@bipboup7761]

Hi ! I'm from the Dauphiné region in France. Although I like cheese on top, purists don't use cheese in dauphinois potatoes. It gives a taste that's a bit different, and both are wonderful. Great job !

Merci, for the contribution of authenticity from the source. May you have a blessed and wonderful holiday season! 🌞🙏

Dude. You are selling that rosemary salt like it's sour beer. But since you're not actually charging anything for it, I'm finally gonna make it because you convinced me that it's just so good that everybody has to make it. i'll comment again after i've made it.

Made them. Everyone loved them. So perfect!! Dude you make cooking easy and entertaining!

[@bradsimpson8724]

As a regular host for big holiday dinners, I stopped making mashed potatoes. They're cheap and easy to make in large quantities, and I have a regular dinner guest whose enthusiasm tends to reach beyond his skill level. So he makes mashed potatoes, and I always do an alternate preparation. This might be that preparation this year.

[@NyancyCat]

I'm not typically a fan of any potato that isn't deep fried, but these looked so good i HAD to try them. I made a few changes, to wit: - added cream cheese to the cream mix - strained the cream because i dont like the texture of onion or garlic - skipped the whole fresh herbs (unavailable) - swapped the king and queen of cheese for their darling prince, mature British cheddar otherwise, pretty much the same. I cannot overstate how bazonkers good this is. The potatoes are soft but not mushy, the cream is insanely flavourful, the texture of the two together is a delight, and it pairs super well with my choice of protein today, some delicious smoked sausage. Cannot recommend this enough.

[@MarsharenaLee01]

I can't wait to try these! They look amazing!

[@thatdudecancook]

They are a must! Hope you enjoy

Made these today for Christmas Eve and these were definitely a highlight. They ran out faster than I expected.

[@Jakereviewsall]

These sound good, I have a thing for smoked cheddar with mine. I have not made it in a long time but I used to make something similar except that I cut the potatoes much thinner and I layered those with the sauce and smoked cheddar throughout each layer, then cover the top with foil, take another pan and put on top then some weight, bake it off for a few hours and then let it cool, cut into wedges then reheat in the oven to serve. I am smoking a brisket and doing smoked cheddar scalloped potatoes for Christmas.

[@barbarabeck1174]

I didn't know I was low on potatoes and had leftover herby cream. I cooked some pasta, added the cream, a little cooking water, and parmesan. OMG so good. I may use the herby cream for this purpose forever! Oh, and had a little leftover sautéed squash (zucchini and yellow) - that just made it even better!

OMG! This looks amazing! I have to try this! I have a suggestion for a minor addition, that is, like Parmigiano-Reggiano, not traditional for Dauphinoise potatoes (yet seems like it would make a delicious addition): bacon bits in the middle, and on the top layer!

I love gratin dauphinois! Can I tell you about an appetizer version that we had in Agrigento, Sicily (at Enoteca 'Nzolia)? It was diced potatoes in a cream, like you use, but pancetta wrapped and crusted with herbed bread crumbs ... I'm attempting to replicate it, with varied success.

So, I'm from the French région where that recipe come from and it's a really common dish. It's quite surprising that for the last 10 years or so, this dish is getting more and more known Édit : the original recipe doesn't have any cheese in it however. Still looks good

[@blucheer8743]

I was going say I’m American but my grandmother was French she never made this with cheese and she had all the cheeses in the world available to her at her market… so I’ve never used cheese… my brother and I would ride our bikes by her house and we could smell her cooking and my brother would look at me with a big smile!

Sonny, we need to talk cheese. Parmigiano Reggiano, Grana Padano, Manchego, Camembert, Brie, Gruyère, and other rind cheeses. Do we eat the rind, do we not eat the rind? Do we use the rind in recipes or do we discard it? We must know! Please do a rind cheese episode.

Dumb question but I have to ask: can you make the "if you know you know" salt blend using dry ingredients? I don't have a food processor and my tiny kitchen won't allow for one. I don't know if the taste profile would be there? Would I be better off with just using kosher salt?

[@robb2biago]

That recipe is definitely a French classic. More people should embrace Gruyère. I use fontina instead of Parmesan. Liked the ramekin idea, it’s easier in a gratin dish with multiple alternating layers of potatoes and cheese. Everyone should embrace the mandolin. There’s so many good smaller ones out there these days. Enjoyed your enthusiasm, but it was a bit loud for my energy. Happy New Year.
