I used spiral sliced ham which i had an abundance of. I substituted Guiness stout since we have that on tap. I used ColbyJack & Parm it was on hand. The kids raved and my husband promised to make love to me later on. I declare a roaring success!
I made this for a French-themed potluck. It was very easy and delicious! I decided to peel and cut the poratoes before boiling which I thought was easier than trying to peel cooked potatoes. Also, I used brie to top. Otherwise, I follwed the recipe. Very good!
This is an excellent dish, the flavor profiles are so striking, and go together so well, that it almost overwhelms the taste buds!!
For the onions, I suggest using Vidalia, if available. Also, for those having problems finding a cheese, Whole Foods carries Oma, from Von Trappe Farms. This wash rind cheese is soft, and paired excellent with this recipe. Plus the orange rind is quite striking!
I said it before & I'm gonna say it again...THIS MAN CANNOT screw up any recipe he's gotta hankering to make??????. This includes the 1s in his head too!?? My 1st endeavor in the world of French cooking & it KICKED SERIOUS BOOTIE!! I mean just shut my mouth & take away my charge cards!!?? WOW! Go get whatever you need to make this. WHY? Because you're gonna impress your honey, [this 1 MAY BE VERY IMPORTANT!!--YOUR IN.LAWS!!] your kids, the PTA, & the most important family member of all--YOUR DOG!?? TASTE IS off.the.chart.EXCELLENT; Super Easy TO MAKE, & LEFTOVERS ..ROCK!! Need I say more? ??ENJOY!!
I made this twice and it was really good both times. The second time I used sour cream instead of cream fresh
WOW!! Amazing seriously. The only substitutions I made were sour cream instead of creme fraiche and Brie instead of Reblchon cheese (which is impossible to find) I also left the skins on the potatoes. Make sure you drain some of the bacon fat the rest I followed to a tee. Sooo good!
I used the best brie I could find but brie alone is very easy to overpower with so much flavor. I might add gruyere or swiss with it next time. I also used sour cream instead of creme fraiche and it kind of took over. I would substitute heavy cream or just some milk instead if you don't have fraiche. But overall it turned out extremely well. My family was wary wit
This was incredible! Easy to make but you need to drain off a lot of the bacon fat. I placed the rind side down because it looked kind of unappetizing with the rind side showing.
I did make changes because I didn't have the correct ingredients. I thought I could substitute but don't!! The only substitution should be the cheese since we can't get it here in the USA. The final result just gave me a hint of how good this dish could be if I used the correct ingredients.
I used gouda. My family thought this was so-so. If I were to make it again I'd put both cheese and sauce on both layers. I feel like it needs something... maybe some mustard in the sauce?
