Peppery Scalloped Potatoes

"We have enjoyed these potatoes for many years. I will usually 1/2 the recipe for just our family and have also made this in the crockpot with great success. Adding some grated cheese changes the flavor nicely."

  1. These potatoes were unbelievable! I loved them...so creamy and delicious. The instructions don't say when to add the flour and butter, so I just mixed it all in with the soup mixture and it turned out fine. One thing- I didn't find them particularly peppery, so if you're looking for a little fire, add extra cayenne. Thanks, I will definately make these again!
     
  2. I usually make cheesy potatoes but thought I would try just plain scalloped. These were awesome! I did not use the onion and had to add more butter and milk towards the end of cooking time. Perfectly seasoned. A craveable potato recipe.
     
  3. Not a spectacular recipe but I had everything I needed in the pantry so that counts for something. I had thought of adding cheese but decided against it. I wish I had. Nobody at the table raved about the recipe but everybody ate it without complaints. I will make again.
     
  4. Nice, smooth, creamy and flavorful potatoes. I added some white pepper as well and didn't find it at all overwhelming, in fact I'll probably add a bit more next time. I think I can eliminate the butter next time and not miss it at all.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>Hello! <br /> <br />I'm a Montana native that has made my way back after a few moves. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for 24 years and we have twin boys who are 18 years old and Freshman in College.&nbsp;&nbsp; I wasn't ready for this empty nest stuff and just want my boys back home!&nbsp; I'm doing my best to adjust.&nbsp; I have continued cooking and am learning how to scale recipes back for just the 2 of us. My husband and I are partners in our own company and own 13 Subway sandwich shops. I work from our home handling all the financial and clerical duties of the business. <br /> <br />Over the years and especially since finding Zaar, cooking has become my passion. My grandmothers were very good cooks and I have fond memories of the meals they prepared. We love entertaining and nothing pleases me more than having my family and others enjoy the food I make. I love it when the house smells good with dinner or whatever is baking. I came upon recipezaar searching for a rhubarb cake recipe one day. The recipe I chose was a 5 star and my addiction began. It took a few months before I started really utilizing the site but once I did my cooking has never been the same. My family now knows all about having to rate recipes, picking their favorite chefs, etc. It's become a family thing and they have told me that I may never let my membership to Recipezaar ever end. <br /> <br />We love to travel and try to go whenever we can. Owning our own business has helped free up time where we can travel more. We've done some Europe, Canada, and much of the U.S. In the coming years I hope to do a lot more. Eating out when we are traveling is the best. I'm trying to learn more about the restaurants and chefs in places we are visiting so we can try and visit those restaurants and enjoy some of the great places our town just doesn't have. <br /> <br />The whole family loves to ski and we look forward to the season every year - it makes winter tolerable. Renting movies or just hanging out with friends is the making of a relaxing weekend for us.</p>
