Scalloped potatoes are a classic comfort food dish that originated in European cuisine, widely popular in North America. Traditionally made by layering thinly sliced potatoes in a rich, creamy sauce often consisting of heavy cream or milk, butter, and occasionally cheese, this dish is baked until golden and tender. Sometimes, herbs like thyme or paprika are added for flavor. Nutritionally, scalloped potatoes are a hearty source of carbohydrates from the potatoes, along with some calcium and Vitamin D from the dairy components. However, the dish can be high in saturated fats and calories, depending on the amount of cream, butter, and cheese used. For healthier alternatives, variations might include reduced-fat dairy or plant-based substitutions for cream. Scalloped potatoes pair well as a side dish and are beloved for their creamy texture and homey, satisfying flavor.
