But while tartiflette may look like a time-tested creation with deep Savoyard roots, the reality is that this casserole of potatoes, bacon, onions, and melted Reblochon cheese is a baby by French food standards, invented in the ‘80s by a clever ski resort owner looking to make good on a dairy glut. But this is no simple case of terroir-washing, as Emily and Caroline are here to share. Tune in to discover: The story of how tax evasion led to the invention of the stinky, washed-rind marvel known as Reblochon Why the roots of tartiflette run deeper than you'd think How to recreate this French specialty at home – even if you can't get your hands on raw milk French cheese In this episode we mention Oma cheese from the Von Trapp family in Vermont.
