Directions
Potatoes Delmonico (Casserole), An elegant side dish served in the finest New York and Boston Hotels/Restaurants in the 1920s and ’30s It’s a bit of work but it’s not difficult if you follow the instructions and the result is certainly worth the effort If ever there was a recipe from scratch, this is it – thus, it’s a great recipe on which one can begin building real cooking skills The genesis of this dish comes from Fannie Farmer’s Boston Cooking School Cook Book Definitely not for dieters! It’s my favorite side dish with poultry and/or pork , Excellent potato recipe I boiled the potatoes, drained and cooled them in refrigerator before slicing, and used medium cheddar cheese Another ‘favorite’ to add to my cookbook Served with recipe #113037 and peas and carrots I think this recipe would be good layered with some leftover chopped cooked ham and chopped green pepper too , Absolutely delicious, Bone Man!!
