What should I remember when buying ingredients for my raclette party?
The flavour, nutritional content and colour of most natural foods are at their best when they are bought fresh. If you are going to grill meat on the top plates, ensure the meat is bought on the day and do not use them if frozen. Potatoes are best cooked using a steaming method to retain the nutrients that sit just under the skin. How much cheese to serve depends on the number of guests and whether they are used to eating lots of cheese. Eating slowly and enjoying the simple and natural flavours of wholesome foods is the secret to a satisfying meal. Take pleasure in small portions and rest in between. Leftover ingredients can easily be used for pizza toppings or another raclette party the next day.
