3 Canned Soups That Will Give You Beyond Creamy Scalloped Potatoes
BY AUTUMN SWIERS
When it comes to scalloped potatoes, it's all about the "cream of" soups, and here are the three best types to use to take your favorite scalloped potato recipe to the next level.
Celery
To amp up the flavor profile, try a combination of cream of celery soup and leftover chicken gravy. The mild flavor makes it hugely versatile and more of a textural asset.
Chicken
Cream of chicken soup will add the same savory meatiness to your scalloped potatoes and is delicious when topped with golden roasted breadcrumbs and a sprig of rosemary.
Mushroom
The umami flavor and earthiness of the cream of mushroom soup will elevate without overpowering the other flavors. Serve with a pat of butter and a sprinkle of paprika.
Add a little milk to your chosen "cream of" soup to thin it out. Then stir in any dried herbs or seasonings and thoroughly mix the combo into your potatoes like a savory bechamél.
