RACLETTES
History
Raclettes was originally a mountain dish, which Swiss shepherds prepared in the evening outside on
red-hot coal or inside their huts by the fireplace after long days of moving herds into the mountain
pastures. The basic element of this cost-efficient farmer food was a piece of rich seasoned Swiss
cheese, which was stabbed on a fork, roasted and then scraped off with a wooden spatula. Potatoes,
cooked with peels, pickles and small onions, smoked ham and local dry white wine were served along
side the dish.
This, however, is just the foundation of this traditional farmer's recipe, prepared in a temporary dwelling
using the most basic ingredients available.
Over the years, this dish has undergone many changes and today, we perceive the raclette as not only
cheese, but all of the side dishes, the roasting device and the method of roasting. Various types of
cheeses, which melt when heated, can be used for preparing raclettes. Raclettes, however, are not only
made from cheese. Smoked fish, asparagus, scrambled eggs and fruit can be used as well.
