Ingredients

• ✓ butter
• russet potato
• water
• salt

Instructions

1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
2. 2 Scoop out as many potato balls as you can per potato using the smaller end of a Parisian scooper, 8 or 9 balls per large potato. You can't get too many out of each potato. If you want perfectly shaped balls, don't scoop too close together.
3. 3 Drop potato balls into a large bowl of cold fresh water so they don't discolor. Use potato carcasses for another use, e.g. potato pancakes.
4. 4 Add potato balls, water, and kosher salt to a large pot. Stir and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once water is boiling, boil for just 2 minutes. Potatoes should still be firm, but not raw.
5. 5 Turn off heat and remove potato balls with a strainer. Allow to drain in one layer on a plate lined with paper towels. Cool until they are room temperature.
6. 6 Heat clarified butter in a skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes. Carefully add completely dry and cooled potatoes to butter. Brown potatoes until outsides are golden and crispy, and the insides are tender and fluffy, 7 to 10 minutes. Move and stir potatoes often so they brown evenly .
7. 7 Remove from heat and serve immediately.

Ingredients

• ✓ butter
• egg yolk
• heavy cream
• vanilla extract
• all-purpose flour
• granulated sugar
• salt

Instructions

1. 1 Whisk together egg yolks, cream, and vanilla in a small bowl until thoroughly combined; set aside. Process flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor until combined, about 3 seconds.
2. 2 Add butter and pulse until a coarse meal forms, about 12 pulses. Add egg mixture and pulse until mixture starts to clump together, 10 to 12 pulses. Dough will be crumbly but should hold together when squeezed.
3. 3 Transfer dough to a clean work surface, and press into a single mass. Divide dough evenly into 2 portions. Pat each half into a 1-inch-thick disk. Tightly wrap each dough disk in plastic wrap. Chill dough until firm, at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
4. 4 Place 1 dough disk on a lightly floured work surface. Let dough sit at room temperature 10 minutes to soften. Lightly grease removable bottom only of a 9 1/2-inch tart pan with butter. Roll dough to a 13-inch circle, dusting dough with flour as needed to prevent sticking. Brush off excess flour from dough.
5. 5 Carefully roll dough around rolling pin, then unroll over the prepared pan. Press dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan, trimming any excess dough.
6. 6 Alternatively, press dough into pan without rolling. Patch any cracks with excess dough.
7. 7 Prick crust all over with a fork. Chill, loosely covered with plastic wrap, 1 hour.
8. 8 While tart shell chills, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
9. 9 Line crust with parchment and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes.
10. 10 Remove weights and parchment. Return to the oven and continue to bake until the bottom of crust is golden brown and looks dry, 10 to 15 minutes.
11. 11 Transfer tart shell to a wire rack and let cool completely, about 40 minutes.

Ingredients

• ✓ butter
• ✓ butter
• ✓ butter
• all-purpose flour
• milk
• egg
• onion
• dijon mustard
• ham
• gruyere cheese

Instructions

1. 1 Add flour, milk, eggs, and melted butter to a blender and process until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Set batter aside for at least 20 minutes.
2. 2 Heat 1 teaspoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onions, stirring occasionally, until they start to turn golden brown, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
3. 3 Coat a crêpe pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat with about 1 teaspoon of the melted butter. Ladle about 1/4 cup batter into the pan, swirling the pan to thinly coat the entire bottom. Cook until small brown spots appear on the bottom of the crêpe, about 2 minutes.
4. 4 Loosen crêpe carefully from the pan using a spatula and gently flip to brown the other side, 1 to 2 minutes more. Slide crêpe onto a plate. Repeat with remaining batter, buttering the pan as needed and stacking crêpes between pieces of parchment or waxed paper.
5. 5 Assemble crêpes one at a time in the still-warm pan; spread mustard over one half, top with 1 slice of ham, along with some of the sautéed onion and Gruyère cheese. Fold the crêpe over the filling, pressing gently, and heat briefly just until the cheese begins to melt. Fold in half again so each finished crêpe is about one-quarter the size of the original.

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish with 2 tablespoons butter and set aside.
2. 2 Peel potatoes and cut at a 45-degree angle into 1/4-inch thick round slices.

Repeat this process two more times for a total of three layers of potatoes, except for the last third of the cheese. Slowly and carefully pour in the milk, without upsetting the layers. The milk should almost, but not quite, cover the potatoes.

5. 5 Bake in the center of the preheated oven until potatoes are tender and the top is well browned and bubbling, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
