Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. butter, room temperature
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 3 shallots, peeled and sliced thinly
- 2 bulbs fennel, trimmed and cored, thinly sliced
- 1 tsp. OTSS Aged Balsamic Salt
- ½ tsp. ground black pepper
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 ½ lbs. Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/8 inch thick
- 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 ½ cups milk
- 1 Tbsp. OTSS High Peaks Seasoning
- 1 tsp. OTSS Roasted Garlic Salt
- ½ tsp. ground black pepper
- 1 cup shredded gruyere cheese
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the shallots and fennel in butter and oil for 2 minutes, seasoning with balsamic salt and pepper. Add the sake and one bay leaf, then cover and cook on medium-low for 20 minutes. Finish by uncovering, increasing the heat to medium-high for 10 minutes to caramelize, and deglazing with 1 Tbsp. of water.
Step 2
While the fennel cooks, combine the sliced potatoes, milk, cream, the second bay leaf, and garlic salt/pepper in a pot. Simmer for 10 minutes with the lid slightly askew until the potatoes are just starting to soften but still hold their shape.
Step 3
In a 13x9 dish, create layers using 1/3 of the potatoes, 1/3 of the cheese, and 1/2 of the fennel; repeat this sequence once. Finish with the remaining potatoes and cheese, then pour the hot cream mixture over the top. Bake covered with foil for 35 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 30 minutes until the top is golden and bubbly.
