The story

About the dish

The central flavors in Costata di Vitello alla Valdostana come from fontina, polenta, veal, and ham. Taste it for a savory, gently tangy cheese note from fontina, a mellow grain character that carries the surrounding flavors from polenta, and full-bodied savory richness from veal.

It draws on Italy’s tradition of turning milk, meat, salt, climate and patient aging into products that carry the identity of a particular place.
