Ultimate Scalloped potatoes ATK

We’ve all had not-worth-the-calories scalloped potatoes, the kind that take two hours to roast and still emerge unevenly tender, with a sauce that’s more gloppy than creamy. Bridget Lancaster, Julia Davison and the rest of their crew at America’s Test Kitchen know exactly what we’re talking about here. They’ve experienced it, too. So now they’re sharing a few tricks — and a recipe — for making the ultimate holiday side. First, Lancaster and Davison say, use russet potatoes and slice them with a food processor for uniform potato slices that are 1/8-inch thick. Any thicker and they’ll slip and slide when you serve them; thinner and you end up with mush. Second, don’t use flour to thicken the sauce — use a mixture of heavy cream and whole milk, amped up with onions, garlic and fresh thyme. And third, simmer the potato slices in the cream mixture before they see the inside of a baking dish, and you’ll have a gratin that roasts to perfection in 20 minutes flat. Holi...

MK Rugulah dough

Image
This should be called the World’s Best Almost Too Rich But Incredible Rugulah Dough. It's outrageously good (and different). It makes a crisp pastry that is the richest and easiest rugulah dough I ever made and takes well to any filling. Dough 2 cups unsalted butter, melted 1/3 cup sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon baking powder 2 cups sour cream 4 1/2 cups, or more (on the pastry board) all-purpose flour Fillings, as per your preference: Jam (raspberry, strawberry, apricot) Ground nuts such as walnuts Cinnamon Sugar Chocolate chips Egg wash For the dough, blend all the ingredients in order given, in a mixer, on slow speed, with the paddle attachment until a ball forms. Turn the dough out on a flour-dusted work surface and roll in a bit of flour, if required to make a soft but manageable dough. If you think you need more flour, you probably do but that said, this dough is a bit greasy until it is well chilled. Divide in four portions, press each into a flattened disc and wrap in...
