Classic Swiss Raclette

Raclette is the cheese of legend, based on the story of a man from Valais by the name of Leon. One cold day, with food scarce in the open pastures, Leon heated up a piece of cheese on the open fire to ease his hunger and keep warm. He found the melted cheese had a transcendent flavor. It not only complemented other foods – it made a great, satisfying meal for his family. Popular since the Middle Ages, Raclette is still produced with milk from cows that are fed fresh grass in the summer and meadow hay in the winter.

Classic Swiss Raclette

    Raclette is the quintessential cheese for sharing and gathering with family and friends. Whatever type of grill is used to heat the cheese, the principle is the same: melt Raclette and pour on top of your favorite foods. This cow's milk cheese is aromatic and has a wonderful creamy texture and a salty, slightly sweet, slightly nutty flavor.
