This is the same recipe/method I've used for over 25 years and I love it. Never curdles. I always bake it 1 hour and 15 minutes, though. I loosely cover the dish with a piece of foil for the first 30, then remove so the top browns. I've tried it with a layer of caramelized onions in the center which is really wonderful, too. I add half of the potato/sauce mixture into the baking dish, sprinkle caramelized onions over top, then layer on the rest of the potato/sauce mixture. Smells as good as it tastes.

As advertised, no curdle! These are creamy and very tasty. I made as written, without the added onion, since I was serving with a dish very heavy in onions. I am going to try this again with some fresh chopped chives, also! Mine did take about 20 minutes longer than stated to cook. Made for Spring 2010 PAC.

This is an excellent technique for scalloped potatoes! It uses the same ingredients I've always used, in addition to the onions and ham we like in it, so the only difference was that it was considerably creamier, which we really appreciated. And it was much easier to put together than the layering technique I've used for 50 years. Thanks!
