One
of Xavier’s personal specialties, Raclette Cheese has Swiss origins, although
you’ll also find it the region of France that shares a border with Switzerland.
It gets its name from the French racler which means “to scrape.”
Flavour
Profile: This fantastic cow’s milk cheese has a wonderful creamy texture and a
salty, slightly sweet, slightly nutty flavor not unlike Gruyere. It’s fairly aromatic and becomes more pungent the longer the cheese
wheel is aged.
Don’t let the smell
fool you, though; raclette doesn’t taste as strong as it smells.
