1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. Scrub the russet potatoes dry. Rub each one lightly with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt. Place directly on the prepared baking sheet. 3. Bake for 50–60 minutes, until the skins are crisp and a knife slides easily into the center. Internal temperature should reach at least 205°F for a fluffy interior. 4. While the potatoes bake, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 8–10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate and crumble once cooled. 5. Remove potatoes from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes, just until safe to handle. Keep the oven on. 6. Slice each potato in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop the interior into a large bowl, leaving about ¼ inch of potato attached to the skin so the shells hold their shape. 7. Add butter, sour cream, milk, salt, and pepper to the scooped potato. Mash until smooth and creamy, with a slight texture remaining. 8. Stir in most of the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese, reserving a small portion of each for topping. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. 9. Spoon the filling evenly back into the potato shells, mounding slightly. 10. Return to the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes at 400°F, until heated through. 11. Switch the oven to broil. Sprinkle reserved cheddar and bacon over the tops. Broil for 2–4 minutes, watching closely, until the cheese is melted and lightly golden. 12. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.

1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a baking dish with butter. 2. Wash and peel potatoes if desired. Slice thinly and evenly, about 1/8 inch thick for even cooking. 3. In a saucepan over medium-low heat, warm heavy cream and milk together for 3–5 minutes. Do not boil. 4. Arrange a layer of sliced potatoes in the baking dish, slightly overlapping. Pour a small amount of the warm cream mixture over the layer and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese. 5. Repeat layering potatoes, cream mixture, and cheddar until all ingredients are used, finishing with cheese on top. 6. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 45 minutes. 7. Remove foil and continue baking 20–30 minutes until the top is golden brown and potatoes are fork-tender. Internal temperature should reach about 200°F for fully tender potatoes. 8. Let rest 10–15 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to thicken and set.

What is a classic meal?

Potatoes are a versatile, starchy ingredient that can be used in a wide range of meals. They absorb flavor easily and can be cooked to different textures.

They work as a base, a side, or part of the main dish. Because they’re neutral, they pair well with most proteins and sauces without needing much adjustment.
