Very nice recipe, I followed directions as written and enjoyed the differance in this recipe with the gruyere cheese and wine in the sauce. It goes together so easy and a nice change from other gratin recipes I've tried with chedder cheeses. Made for ZWT 2011 -
This was tasty. I used chicken stock instead of water, but followed the rest of the recipe exactly. Thanks.
