Day of boiled bread from Villar d'Arène (Po-Buli)
Baking the "PoBuli" in Villar d'Arene is an old tradition from the yeart 1428, and is still at the heart of the village life. When winter is at the corner, local families are brought together to bake a batch of bread for the entire year. For that, they invite their friends and family for three days of kneading, baking and tasting.
