The Flavor Experience
This melty funkster is studded with hot chili pepper rings for a smoky, spicy bite. Produced at higher altitudes, it's nutty and slightly pungent. Perfect for snacking and for topping your favorite BBQ protein.
The Story
The name "raclette" comes from the French "racier," "to scrape". Raclette was traditionally a herdsman's cheese's one made for themselves and not for market. After allowing it to melt by the evening fire, barely encased in its rind, the cheese would be scraped over hot potatoes and other mountain provisions. Now raclette is one of the prized styles of Alpine cheese, still lending itself to the communal meal. Scrape away, dear friends!
Usage Tips
Melt over eggs, atop a burger, or simply serve with a punchy mustard and tangy cornichon.
