Chef's BBA
- As a precaution, check the cooking of the gratin: if the blade of a knife digs into it easily and without resistance, the potatoes are cooked.
- It is also possible to grill the smoked bacon slices in a dry pan (without adding fat).
- Saint-Marcellin is a soft cow's milk cheese from Dauphinois. It has a mild, slightly acidic flavor and comes in the form of a disc 7 to 8 centimeters in diameter and 2 centimeters thick.
