Cooking ham and scalloped potatoes
At what temperature can you cook scalloped potatoes and heat a cooked ham together? Ham says 275 and potatoes says 325.
Best Answer
I would stick to approx 300, and put the potatoes in the hottest part of the oven and the ham in the coolest part of the oven, that should do the trick, and get ready to take your ham out before the potatoes are finished - at which point possibly turn the oven up a bit. As with a lot of cooking, it can take a bit of juggling.

And if you overcook your scalloped potatoes, the milk is not only likelier to curdle, but the potatoes will break down into complete mush. And neither will make for an appealing dish.Scalloped Potatoes with Ham
