Swiss Tastings in London

A Swiss treat from London's oldest food market, Borough's Market in London.



Here we see a half round of Raclette cheese nestled in a raclonette machine, which heats the cheese, in effect roasting the open part near the heating element. The cheese then gets tilted and scraped onto a plate (rind included, mind you!) bearing a small potato with the addition of cornichons, baby dill pickles and baby onions. What looks like a gloppy mess on a plate tastes like nothing short of divine order in your mouth!
