The Ladin cuisine

There's only one certainty in life: in the Ladin valleys, you'll never stay on an empty stomach. In the kitchens of Val Gardena, Alta Badia and Kronplatz, there's always a pot on the stove and mouth-watering smells that remind of grandmothers. A traditional dish called "Panicia" is a barley soup with vegetables and meat served with slight variants across South Tyrol. But the Ladin cuisine offers far more delicacies: the local dumplings "Bales" , potato dumplings "Gnoch" and fritters filled with spinach and ricotta cheese "Turtres". You can also try a popular dish known as "Grestl", roasted potatoes and veal cut into pieces or "Fortaies", spiral fried pancakes. Besides tasting delicious, the "Jufa", a kind of milk pudding that is traditionally eaten in a pot and with a spoon, is likewise an authentic experience.
