Make Ahead
The gratin can be baked up to 2 hours in advance. Reheat in a 350° oven or serve at room temperature.
Suggested Pairing
This summery gratin is lighter than most because it doesn't contain any cream or cheese, making it an ideal dish to pair with an equally summery rosé, say, from France's Loire Valley.
