Description
In this episode of Dessert Person, Claire Saffitz makes Pommes Anna, a classic French potato dish that’s as elegant as it is comforting. Using freshly dug potatoes from her garden, Claire layers thinly sliced potatoes with rosemary-infused butter, garlic, salt, and pepper, then bakes them until crisp and golden on the outside and tender inside.
This recipe is simple, refined, and ideal for the holidays - perfect alongside roast chicken, turkey, or any festive centerpiece. Claire shares her tips for even slicing, layering for the best texture, and how to unmold Pommes Anna beautifully for your table.
If you’re looking for a holiday side that feels both classic and special, this is it.
