19. Valle d'Aosta

Polenta with beef stewed in wine
A metaphorical million miles from a light, Mediterranean diet, food from the Valle d'Aosta region is a mountainous mix of cheese, butter and hearty stews. The staple carb is the cornmeal porridge polenta, traditionally cooked in an iron cauldron.
Paired with beef stewed in wine, a carbonada, it meets the calorific demands of a day on the ski slopes or mountain trails.
