Tartiflette is a
French dish from the
Savoy region. It originated in the valley of
Aravis, home of
Reblochon cheese. It is not, however, a traditional dish and was, in fact, invented and launched only in the
1980s by the Reblochon trade union in an attempt to increase sales of the cheese. Different valleys in the region have different methods of producing tartiflette and there are probably more than one recipe per village. All recipes have potatoes, cheese, and some kind of meat such as slab bacon or salt pork.
McDonald's serves a form of tartiflette in its French outlets.
