Original Recipe Yield 12 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, sliced thin
  • 1 quart buttermilk
  • 5 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 3 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 (16 ounce) package sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x12 inch glass or ceramic dish with olive oil.
  2. Layer potatoes on the bottom of the dish. Pour 1/3 of the buttermilk over the potatoes and sprinkle with 1/3 of the salt, pepper and cheese. Repeat 2 more times, ending with cheese on top.
  3. Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until hot, bubbly and golden brown.

Footnotes

  • This recipe calls for kosher salt, not table salt. If you would like to substitute table salt, you will need only a fraction of the salt called for; season to taste.
  • Using a food processor to slice the potatoes will make it easier to achieve very thin slices. Remember, thicker slices will take longer to cook
