The Raclette Party
This pairing adventure will take you to the Swiss Alps right in your own home. Raclette is a traditional dish from the mountainous parts of France and Italy that involves broiling the face of a large wedge of cheese and scraping it over an assortment of accoutrements: pickles, boiled potatoes, sliced meat, a side of mustard. We’ve added an American twist with delicious domestically-produced pairings.

Whitney (4.5-pound wedge) — Whitney has a dense, incredibly supple paste and a peachy wine-washed rind. Whitney is meaty, sweet, and slightly funky, but these bold flavors are balanced out by their buttery smoothness. Winner of the 2022 American Cheese Society Best of Show award!

Pitchfork Pickle Spicy Squickles (16-ounce jar)
Squickles are the pickle you didn't know you craved. Garlic and chili flake compliment the sweet crunchiness of butternut squash. They are great as a snack and can be that something extra to swank up your cheese boards or raclette pairings.
Pitchfork Pickle Pickled Cauliflower (16-ounce jar)
Cauliflower pickled with mustard seed and peppercorns make this the perfect pairing for any raclette party.
Enzo’s Table Olives (9-ounce jar)
Estate-grown California Olives brined with Jacobsen Sea Salt. Meaty and buttery, especially delicious with washed rind cheeses.
Monti Verdi Lonzino (2x3-ounce package)
Lonzino is a lesser-know cured meat (coming from the loin) that produces a lean and sweet cut—almost like prosciutto. Monti Verdi—a Vermont charcuterie producer that employs old world techniques—leaves a nice layer of fat to add softness and silkiness. A long aging process of over four months allows for a complexity of flavors of this top-quality meat to emerge.
