Les Gaudes
Grilled Corn Flour Soup
Typical from the Franche-Comté region, this soup of grilled corn flour is cooked slowly and served with sugar or salt and cream. In the past, Gaudes was an important part of the local diet.
Small pancakes called "Galettes de Gaudes" can also be prepared with the same kind of flour mixed with eggs, then fried on both sides.
Les Gaudes and Wine
To accompany the gaudes, choose a white wine, preferably with some oak aging, like a Burgundy Saint-Aubin or a local Jura Chardonnay aged in oak barrels
