Potato Pave
Pave, the French word for "paving stones," is a term chef Thomas Keller uses to describe any such rectangular or square food preparation. His potato pave is a slightly more refined version of scalloped potatoes. When he made the recipe on Martha's TV show, he showed how he slices russet potatoes into thin rectangles, tosses them in cream, and layers them in a baking pan.The pave is baked then chilled overnight and cut into individual portions and browned on the stovetop to serve. This dish makes an unforgettable holiday side dish.
