Gooey, Gorgeous Raclette #nationalcheeseloversday


Today Amy of House of Nash Eats is hosting us to celebrate National Cheese Lovers' Day. Ummm...yeah. I'm not missing that party. She encouraged us to think: "Gouda, Brie, Pepperjack, Feta, Cheddar, American, Swiss, Monterey Jack, Manchego - the list goes on and on! Let's celebrate National Cheese Lovers Day with your cheesiest recipes!"

Here's the Cheesy Line-Up


Gooey, Gorgeous Raclette

Perhaps, one of my favorite ways to eat cheese: Raclette. Gooey, gorgeous raclette. Don't fuss - you don't need any fancy raclette equipment to have this delicious, cheesy dish at your house. Here's how...


Ingredients
  • small organic potatoes, quartered
  • salt
  • assortment of pickles
  • Raclette cheese, sliced to  ¼" thickness

Procedure
Bring potatoes to a boil in salted water and simmer until fork tender. Drain the potatoes and set aside.

Put the cheese slices in a single later in the skillet. Place the skillet over a flame or under a broiler. Cook until it is melted and bubbling and just starting to brown at the edges.

While the cheese is cooking, serve some potatoes and pickles on individual plates.


When the cheese is ready, use a spatula to slide the melted Raclette over the potatoes.


  Enjoy!

  1. I have a friend that has all the raclette equipment and we have enjoyed this at her house. Glad to know I can make it at home. Thanks

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting  Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of  All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo. I understand the need to self-isolate. And we are abiding by the social distancing guidelines put in place by our state. But, boo, nonetheless. Oahu, October 2017 So for this month's Food'N'Flix, I chose to open up the field and let all of the food bloggers take a (virtual) Hawaiian holiday.  My boys have been to Oahu several times with my parents in recent years as my dad grew up there and wanted to spend some time on the island with his grandsons.
