igourmet French Raclette Cheese

igourmet French Raclette Cheese

The world’s most famous melting cheese, Raclette Cheese is made in the Alps on both sides of the French-Swiss border.

The French version is perhaps a bit softer than Swiss Raclette, but the two taste very similar.

Raclette has a semi-soft interior dotted with small holes, and a rosy, inedible rind. Eaten as a table cheese, Raclette has a smooth, creamy taste that is neither too salty nor sharp. However, our French Raclette tends to have a strong, pungent aroma that is not for the timid.

This fabulous cheese is traditionally melted (a half wheel is placed in a fireplace, then the melted top surface is continuously scraped off) and layered atop boiled potatoes, pickles, fresh vegetables, and sliced meats. Check out our recipes and try it for yourself!

The Story of Raclette

Traditionally the melting (and probably the eating) of a Raclette took place in front of an open fire with the cut side of the huge piece of cheese facing the fire. As it started to melt, the soft part of the cheese was scraped off with a large knife and served to those gathered round the fireplace or table. The tradition soon spread across the Savoy region and then onto other countries beyond the Alps and today Raclette has become an international star!
