" I use this recipe as my classic staple for scalloped potatoes. It's fabulous as is and is "tweakable" if you have stuff in your fridge (leftover ham, different types of cheeses, etc). I never have dry mustard on hand---always use a heaping teaspoon of dijon mustard. Just delicious, fabulous, a must have for cold blustery evenings!"
