Zuppa a la Vapelenentse Recipe/Traditional dish in Valley d Aosta
Seupa a la Vapelenentse
It's traditional food in Our Valley in Northern part of Italy Valley di Aosta. Traditional dish in the Village named after "Valpelline". This dish is made of 3 Main Ingridients and its easy to prepare. If you like the strong taste of cheese like "Fontina" I'm sure you'll love this Recipe too.
Note: Original recipe Usually they boiled first the cabbage. But in my version I just put derictly on Pan. Leafy veggies don't need to cook long time and I don't want to throw the natural water/Nutrients in it.
OK, here's all you need:
(Ingredients: 4 persone)
400g/1 small white or Savoy Cabbage
250g. Fontina cheese
6 to 8 slices of Brown bread/Pane nero
20g butter
1 liter and 1/2 brodo/beef broth
Sale/Salt
METHOD:
Step 1: Prepare your Cheese and Cabbage. CUT it a very thin slices (2/3mm thick) .. IN a large bowl Sprinkle with Salt in a sliced Cabbage work with your hand by Mixing it well, Set aside for 5 min. ( careful not to put many bcoz beef broth and cheese already have salt)
STEP 2: Melt butter in a Pot . Then Add the Brodo/Beef broth ( i used my own prepared beef broth w/ bones part or little fats in it and with various kind of vegetables, carrots, potatoes, bay leaves, etc. It's more good)
STEP 3: Toast your Bread ( I used to put in oven for 5 min. 180°c more or less browning)
STEP 4: In your rectangular Baking Pan, Layer your Bread, Cabbage and cheeses. Repeat the process (2 layers).
STEP 5: Add brodo/beef broth, cover with aluminum foil Bake at Preheated oven 200°c for 1 and half hr. (halfway through cooking you can remove foil to make it brown on top and the beef broth completely absorbed)
Lastly, Serve Hot
ENJOY!
