Pommes Aligot is more than just a cheesy twist on mashed potatoes. This incredibly magical blend of potatoes and cheese was born in the French region of Midi-Pyrénées, and it is a celebration of regional cheese, served on special occasions alongside sausage or roasted meat. It’s traditionally made with Tomme de Laguiole or Tomme d’Auvergne cheese, although these fresh soft cheeses known for their melting qualities are pretty hard to find outside their tiny cities in the south of France.
While not as traditional, pommes Aligot can also be made with other melting cheeses like Gruyère and mozzarella and doesn’t require more than a strong arm for mixing and a hearty appetite.
