GLORE GRATA

The glôre gratà is a typical dish from Piedmontese cuisine, in particular the Chisone valley in the province of Turin.
The glôre gratà has a variant grateful to talhioun in glôre, in the local dialect patois means cut, where the potatoes are grated rather than sliced​​. Soon I promise to post the recipe for this version of the glory.

The potatoes were once a staple food of the peasants of the mountains. Once the glôre of potatoes was a dish that was prepared in individual homes then baked as bread baked in the common villages or hamlets of the Val Chisone.
