Who this list is for
This ingredient list is built for anyone hosting a Swiss raclette dinner for six people. It’s designed for home cooks using a tabletop raclette grill or broiler-safe dishes, not for formal chefs or large-scale catering. If you want to offer guests a classic, hands-on raclette experience—melting cheese, arranging toppings, and sharing conversation—this list is your starting point.
How to use this list
Start by checking your kitchen for any of these ingredients before shopping. Gather the raclette cheese first—2 1/2 pounds is the right amount for six. Next, round up 3 pounds of baby potatoes to boil ahead of time, and pick up jars of cornichons and pickled pearl onions. Add prosciutto, sliced cooked ham, and smoked sausage to your cart. For vegetables, look for cremini mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, red bell peppers, and a pound of broccoli florets. Don’t forget fresh French baguettes, Dijon mustard, and black pepper. Lay out everything buffet-style so guests can build their own plates.
Common mistakes
People often forget to buy enough cheese or underestimate the amount of potatoes needed. Avoid buying pre-shredded cheese; raclette works best with thick slices or wedges. Don’t overload on cured meats—keep it balanced with vegetables. Skip strong or aged cheeses; stick to classic raclette cheese for the right melt and flavor. Also, don’t serve raw potatoes—boil them ahead of time.

Before you go
