One of my favorite parts of working with the French guys is all the new and interesting food and cheese recommendations I get! Sometimes I just get stuck in the same rut of making the same old thing and buying the same old cheese and it just gets a little repetitive.
The latest food idea is tartiflette. When I was first given this idea (thank you Antoine!), I was thinking is this a dessert? Then I looked it up - it's sort of a "hash" of sorts, with potatoes, bacon and reblochon cheese - yum! And tartiflette just sounds so much more exotic than "potato, bacon and cheese hash". Sadly, however, I could not find reblochon (apparently this is a cheese from the French Alps) at Whole Foods :( I did find this lovely French brie that was a tasty substitute - a soft buttery brie from Normandy.
Recipe was based off of one I found in "The Country Cooking of France" - I used fingerling potatoes, the previously mentioned brie, bacon and onions. Here are the pictures :)
