This potato gratin is made with a delicious creamy Tofu sauce. Typically, gratins feature Béchamel white sauce, but in this recipe, the sauce primarily consists of pureed silken tofu. It offers a healthier alternative with fewer calories while being rich in protein and various nutrients inherent in Tofu. A modest amount of butter and milk, combined with cheese of course, effectively mask the soy flavor of Tofu. Whether scaled up for a crowd in a large baking dish or prepared in a single-serving dish, this versatile dish caters to everyone. Serving it piping hot from the oven is ideal for chilly days.
