Best Scalloped Potatoes

These are the best scalloped potatoes I think I've ever eaten. Here is the recipe:

Ingredients:

3 pounds potatoes, thinly sliced
salt to taste
9 tablespoons all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons butter, diced
1 quart milk

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Arrange one layer of potatoes in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the potatoes with salt, 3 tablespoons flour and 2 tablespoons butter.

Repeat layering 2 more times, until all potatoes have been used.

Slowly pour milk over the potatoes until the dish is 3/4 full of milk.

Bake until the milk comes to a boil (check after 5 minutes)

Reduce heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for another 45 to 60 minutes.
