'With a cheese and/ or breadcrumb topping that forms a crust. The crunchy toppings; the soft, creamy interiors.'
The strategy is simple: Choose what's in season; cook it; mix it with a sauce or cream; add a topping of breadcrumbs, cheese, nuts or crumbled flatbread, plus a little butter or olive oil for a savory gratin, or meringue or a sabayon for a sweet gratin; and bake it in a shallow baking dish until the top is crusty and brown.
