Preheat oven to 350º. Add potatoes and salt to a half-full stockpot of boiling water; parboil about 8 minutes. Drain well. Grease a 10-inch baking dish. Place the potatoes in it in 3 layers, sprinkling each layer with flour and dotting with butter. Sprinkle the bacon on the top layer.

Heat milk or cream, salt, paprika, and dry mustard. Pour over the potatoes. Bake about 35 minutes, testing for tenderness with a fork.
