This scalloped potatoes recipe is from Chris’s grandmother, Fern. The first time I had it, we had been married for just a few years and my father-in-law made these potatoes for Christmas.

I kicked things up a notch and picked up some Boar’s Head Gruyere and Vermont Cheddar at Safeway. Boar’s Head is a purveyor of the finest meats, cheese, condiments, and hummus on the planet.

This is definitely an important ingredient. I use whole milk for a richer roux and overall flavor. I used yellow onions but sweet onions would also work here. Just make sure to thinly slice before caramelizing. Safeway blogger tour, and learned all about olive oil and the production process. I got to witness first hand, olives going from tree to bottle in just 6 hours! Tip: Check the harvest date on your bottle of olive oil.

You want it to be within the past year. Olive oil has a short shelf life and is best used up within a year! These two ingredients are the base of the roux, or white sauce that the potatoes will be cooked in. I opted for Boar’s Head thick cut bacon for this recipe. Boars’ Head utilizes skilled artisans that use time-honored recipes that call for hand-trimming meats and applying spices by hand.
