Cooking.com Tip: One of the best things about going to Switzerland is eating raclette. But now you don’t have to go to Europe to enjoy this savory dish. With an electric raclette grill you can make it at home. Chunks of raclette cheese, similar to gruyere, are melted over the exposed heat and scraped off as it melts. Serve it as a meal with new potatoes, sausage and bread.
