Pork Chops With Scalloped Potatoes

“Wipe them with vinegar,” you say? I might just dip them in vinegar or pour some on, but okay, wipe–fair enough.

A stripped-down version appeared in the August 29, 1934 edition of The (Madison) Wisconsin State Journal:

Baked Pork Chops with Scalloped Potatoes

 

6 pork chops
Salt and pepper
6-8 potatoes, sliced thin
Milk
Flour

Arrange layers of raw potatoes in a greased baking dish, seasoning and sprinkling with flour each layer as for scalloped potatoes. Add enough milk to just cover the potatoes. Arrange pork chops over the top. Cover and bake 1-1/2 hours at 325 degrees F. Remove cover the last 10 minutes to brown the chops.
