Crozets de Savoie are small, square-shaped, flat pasta originally made in the Savoie region in southeast France. Crozets were made traditionally at home by housewives using buckwheat or wheat, or sometimes both. This pasta is used mainly to prepare two regional dishes, the croziflette (a variant of tartiflette) and crozets with diots (traditional Savoyard sausage). [1] [2]
The name crozet comes from the Franco-Provençal word croé which means 'little'. [3]
