Gratin Dauphinois

I have made several potato gratins using various recipes, but this is hands down the BEST potato gratin recipe I have ever used. The garlicky flavor is not overpowering but still very much in the forefront, the texture is perfect. Anytime I have made this it has been quickly devoured. The recipe ratio here is just right, causing the potatoes to come out perfect everytime. It's never too greasy, or too liquidy. The only thing deviation I make is I add thyme on occasion.
