Raclette
Raclette
, in terms of international cooking, is both the cheese as well as the entire dish prepared and
the device used to prepare it. Each of these devices are equipped with an area, where you can either
grill or maintain the food, such as meat, fish, vegetables, potatoes and fruits warm. The top removable
plate, made of marble, cast iron or aluminium is given an anti-adhesive layer. The bottom level, heated
by a heating unit, contains pans with an anti-stick layer. These are used for thawing food. Ingredients
shall be prepared in advance on a serving plate. The raclette device can be round or square, usually with
six to eight pans, on which guests place their cheese, fish, spices according to the recipe and their own
taste. Upon warming up, the preparation stage takes from 15 to 30 minutes – according to the type
of food. True experts drink non-sweetened black tea or bitter liquor along with raclettes. Here, we will
most likely stay with the shepherd-wine tradition: dry wine.
Stone plate
Hot natural whinstone, perhaps another polished lava stone, marble - you can apply a bit of grease, or
not, add spices, carved up pieces of meat, fish, vegetables and fruit. Thanks to the natural preparation
of food, the composition does not change, the taste remains natural and the aroma develops within a
short time of grilling. The reward is the preservation of minerals and vitamins.
USING THE APPLIANCE
Place the grill on a firm, flat surface to ensure stability and enough space around the grill. Put the grill
and stone plate on the heating unit. Use only stones supplied together with the device or purchased at
an authorized service centre and only on a specified base.
Do not put aluminium foil or anything else under the stone or between the heating unit and reflecting
glass.
Before using the grill for the first time, wipe the plate and grilling pans with a damp cloth and spread a
small amount of edible oil on the grilling plate using a small cloth.
The red light will go on immediately after the device is plugged into the socket. It will turn off once it is
disconnected. The right red indicator lamp will light when the temperature control is turned from “1-8”
and will again turn off upon reaching the selected temperature. This lamp will go on or off during the
grilling process, depending on the achieved grill temperature. The thermostat settings only have an
informative nature (see table below) and we recommend trying to prepare food so that its taste and
quality would correspond with your requirements. Before using the device, always pre-heat the grill on
the highest level for 10-15 minutes and the stone plate for a maximum of 20-30 minutes.
After using the device for the first ten times, pour a small amount of vegetable oil on the stone and
wipe with an absorbent cloth. This will limit food becoming stuck to the stone.
Note:
The first use of the appliance can be accompanied by a slight odour or smoke. The odour can
be caused by greases that became stuck to the heating unit during production and are now
brining. Therefore, we recommend warming up the grill for 10 minutes without placing any
food onto it (make sure to provide sufficient ventilation during this interval).
