Traditionally eaten melted over an open flame, Raclette has a nutty almost wine-like flavour. Served with potatoes and strips of meat, this cheese is very popular in the colder months
Raclette is a semi-soft cheese made on both sides of the French and Swiss Alps. Ours comes from the French side and tends to be slightly softer with a smoother, creamier flavour than its Swiss counterpart. The name Raclette comes from the French word ‘racler’, which means ‘to scrape’. The cheese itself has a pungent orangery rind with a straw coloured paste. Its flavour varies from mild and milky to rich and nutty as it matures.
The traditional way to eat Raclette is to melt it, either sliced in a little grill pan or melted under a heating element. It is then best served with potatoes, onions, gherkins and salami. The cheese doesn’t separate when melted which is why it is such a good cheese to cook with. We have a grill that we hire out to customers. There’s no charge for the hire, we just ask that you buy the ¼ of Raclette needed for the machine from us and return the grill in the same clean state as you received it. Contact us for more information.
We often have a whole Raclette available so if you’re looking for a larger piece please give us a call. If you order 1800g of Raclette you will receive a quarter of a whole cheese.
The best drink to have whilst enjoying your warm potatoes covered in hot, melted cheese is a dry white wine as this cuts wonderfully through the body of the cheese.
