Raclette

Raclette is both a type of cheese and a popular Swiss dish where the cheese is melted and scraped onto various accompaniments such as boiled potatoes, vegetables, and cured meats. Traditionally, a wheel of Raclette cheese is heated until soft, and the melted surface is then scraped off onto plates. The dish is often enjoyed communally, with the melted cheese providing rich flavor and a creamy texture. It’s commonly served during colder months and social gatherings, highlighting the communal and interactive aspect of melting and sharing cheese.
