RACLETTE
• Raclette is a typical Swiss dish. You can obtain a good raclette by using the original
raclette cheese. Take about 150-250 grams for each person. Cut the cheese into
slices (more or less 2 mm thick).
• Prepare potatoes in their skin, which you will put into a covered bowl or on the grill, in
order to keep them warm.
• Put the raclette-grill in the middle of the table.
• Put the cheese into the raclette pans and place them under the heating tube. The
cheese will melt after 3 or 4 minutes.
• As soon as the cheese has melted and taken a brownish-golden color, you can serve
it as it is on the plate or spread it out on the potatoes in their skin. Add some fresh
ground black pepper.
• Raclette is served with raw ham or "Bündner" meat, little oignons and pickles, as well
as a dry wine.
