  1. Very mild and creamy. This would go well with any spicy or strong flavored meat or main dish. I made the full recipe and got 8 servings. I also used jarlsburg because for what ever reason gruyere was twice the cost of the jarlsburg. I can also see this dish as being flexible. For example: adding some mushrooms sauted in a little butter would be a nice addition. Nice recipe Evie! I want to update this review by adding that a had a little left so I warmed it the next day and it was even better reheated! The cream saturated the potatoes, the sauce thickened even more, and it seemed all the richer.
     
  2. I scaled this back as there was just the 2 of us. I can see me making this dish for family visits. So easy to make and even I think could be prepared ahead and then baked closer to meal time. A 'keeper' for us. :) So pleased you got this book out of the library :)
