Gratin de Pommes de Terre at Pond Mountain Inn

Gratin de Pommes de Terre

Gratin de Pommes de Terre, which literally means, “apple from the earth.” The word pomme used to mean “fruit” in Old French—we serve this as a breakfast side dish, and a “must have” for our French guests when visiting from Montreal.

This is one of the most traditional French side dishes for any kind of meal, from lunch to an elegant dinner, whether you follow the French gratin dauphinois traditional recipe or not, a potato gratin is always a good choice—it’s as simple as it is delicious… potatoes, sour cream, cheese, onions and finely chopped mushrooms. Recipes are easily found for this ubiquitous French breakfast or dinner companion.
