Staying on the Reblochon recipes theme… I’ve p Staying on the Reblochon recipes theme… I’ve put together a new Five More ways with Reblochon on the blog. Recipes from The Taste of Savoie Kitchen. The types of dishes that can be created using Reblochon cheese appear to be endless. From fusion tartiflettes, the cauliflower and Diots one is keto-friendly! Swapping out the potatoes for cauliflower makes this a posh cauliflower cheese really! Then I felt the humble turnip needed some press so I used turnip in place of potato, this is a great alternative. The classic Croziflette uses Crozets pasta from The Savoie region then to a Reblochon tart and little Reblochon pillows/chaussons for Apero time. Bon Appétit! Pictured: 1. Cauliflower and Diots Tartiflette 2. Reblochon chaussons 3. Turnip Tartiflette 4. Croziflette 5.

My Reblochon Pithiviers This week was a proud mome My Reblochon Pithiviers This week was a proud moment for Taste of Savoie - Felicity Cloake featured my recipe for a savoury pithiviers in her latest article in the Guardian - How to make the perfect Cheese and Potato Pithiviers. There was my name nestled among a few of the great chefs and cooks that I admire. Felicity called my Pithiviers a clever one sheet version! I remember at the time I made it that it was quite fiddly but the result very satisfying as the Reblochon oozed out when it was cut. All the flavours of a tartiflette wrapped in crispy puff pastry - I’d call that pretty much perfection on a plate. If you’d like to try my Pithiviers the recipe link is in my bio - I would follow Felicity’s advice on the creation, the ingredients being cold, and she liked the potato being cooked before putting into the Pithiviers, just as I did! There is a link to The Guardian article in my post. #pithiviers #reblochon #cookingwithreblochon #felicitycloake #perfectcheeseandpotatopithiviers #tasteofsavoie #worththecalories #frenchfoodblogger #heresmyfood #bloglifestyle #frenchblogger #makeitdelicious #tasteofsavoiekitchen
One of the newest restaurants in Les Gets La Bokka One of the newest restaurants in Les Gets La Bokka - here’s a little throwback to when I visited for their opening night in December and then a week later for dinner! Fabulous authentic Italian cuisine. Really stunning eclectic decor with different styles around the restaurant. Great friendly service. A wonderful addition to the already really great Les Gets restaurant scene. On opening night delicious canapés were served and seriously good pizzas with the best light bases! For dinner, I chose a selection from their range of antipasti which was all very tasty! La Melanzana alla Parmigiana Il Vitello Tonnato Insalata La Bokka Followed by the Cod fillet, broccoli cream, seasonal vegetables and olive oil emulsion I need to go back and sample the rest of the menu! They are open every day in the winter from 6pm and offer takeaway #italianrestaurantlesgets #italiancuisinelesgets #lesgets #madeinlesgets #lesgetsrestaurant #alpinelodges #eatlesgets #tasteofsavoie #frenchfoodblogger #livetoeat #takeawaylesgets #emporterlesgets
