First, it is an alliteration, which repeats the first letter of words. It makes writing and reading interesting and fun. It would be like saying: The cow's cud chomped clockwise, instead of saying, The cow ate grass. Second, as to meaning: The sentence is comparing Patty's pies to "provincial potage". That requires you to know or find out what provincial and potage means, to understand the sentence. The verb "puts" is qualified by "to shame", so obviously, the sentence makes the pies better than the potage. Potage is a thick soup; one meaning of provincial is ordinary, unsophisticated, plain. So the writer is comparing the taste / appearance of Patty's pies to the plain, lackluster thick soup.
