When the weather gets cold (today it's 24F here in Boston) we start selling lots of raclette grills...well, maybe not lots...but more than we do in July. Raclette is an alpen treat kinda like fondue in that it's melted cheese you cook and eat at the table with friends and family, see the vid above (I found the vid online, it's in French!). You melt the Raclette cheese in the little individual holders, and you cook veggies and sausage on the hot plate above. Add a little bread, wine and beer into the mix and you've got a party...er..soiree. KitchenArts carries Swissmar's 8 person raclette (same as the one in the video), $99.95.
