Introduction to your Raclette
The name raclette refers to a type of cheese and a centuries old Swiss cooking style. Raclette is now
associated with an entire type of meal that is cooked on a raclette grill.
A raclette grill is a great way to entertain guests with an interactive and fun meal, requiring very little
effort from the host or guest. With a small amount of preparation ahead of time, a group of up to eight
people can socialize and cook any meal, snacks or appetizers together.
The raclette grill allows each diner to prepare his or her food to their own personal tastes and try
different combinations of foods and ingredients in the same meal. The raclette grill is an easy, unique
cooking tool that brings friends and family closer together providing joy and entertainment for all.

Suggestions For Raclette Parties
When serving a raclette meal, there is usually a heavy base food such as potatoes, bread or tortillas
that are warmed on the grill top while guests use their individual raclette dishes to warm their favorite
cheeses and toppings in slots located under the grill top . Raw meats can be cooked on the grill top, or
if precooked, can be warmed on the grill or heated in the raclette dishes. When all of your ingredients
are thoroughly heated, place your potato, bread or tortilla on a plate. Fill with meats, cheeses and
toppings of your choice by scraping the ingredients from the raclette dishes using the spatulas
provided.
There is no limit to the combinations of flavors you can create. Try different combinations and
different ingredients until you find your favorites. Season all meats to your liking. Try different
cheeses, condiments, sauces, fresh herbs and spices for extra flavor. Quantities will vary depending on
party size.
