Dana tweeted pics today of Raclette:



















Raclette is both a type of cheese and a Swiss dish based on heating the cheese and scraping off (racler) the melted part.

The Raclette cheese is heated by a special machine, then scraped onto diners' plates.
It is accompanied by small firm potatoes (Bintje, Charlotte or Raclette varieties), gherkins, pickled onions, and dried meat, such as jambon cru/cuit and viande des Grisons.
