Raclette – Strong
Originally from Switzerland, cheesemaker Fritz Kaiser was a pioneer in creating Canadian raclette.
Kaiser cheese dairy produces a wide variety of raclette.
The Raclette Forte is a surface-aged cheese between 8 and 12 months, which gives it a firmer texture.
It features aromas of milk and butter and a pronounced nutty flavor.
Its name comes from the act of scraping the melted surface of the cheese onto potatoes on a plate.

Cheese preservation
Semi-firm & firm cheese Washed Rinds, Semi-firm & firm cheese Washed Rinds
To best preserve semi firm to firm cheese with washed rinds, store them in the fridge between 2-4 degrees in the paper provided.
The paper will get malleable every time it is unwrapped but will not lose its efficiency to keep the cheese fresh. It is very normal that a layer of white mold grows on the paste of the cheese, this is the natural process of the rind trying to form.
This mold is not harmful; you may remove a thin slice and keep consuming the cheese. The cheese will keep for 4-5 weeks refrigerated.
