Hive: Musings about Crothian

[Angcuru]

The best cheese is smoked swiss, for simple munching.

There's a Crothian reference in post #14 of this thread.

(Read the thread title and then the post and you'll see what I mean.)

Ever tried a brie cheese pizza? Wow, those are good.

Been a fan of fondue and raclette recently, though.

What's raclette?

What's raclette?

It's kind of like fondue except different.

 

[Crothian]

Best. Definition. Ever.

"Its kind of this...but not."

You need a raclette set for it.

You have the foodstuff on top (usually potatoes, but also meats and such) and underneath each person has his own little pan for sauces/cheeses. In between (actually, right under the top part, centered) is the warming mechanism which keeps the foodstuff warm and the sauces warm.

'Raclette' literally means 'to scrape' due to the more traditional (but I think less common version) version pictured here:

and it's usually on a little setup like this:

Happy?

I gave a rough idea first and then a more detailed post.

Besides, it's two posts instead of one.

Postcount +1 doesn't do anything on these boards except for Crothian. I say we change it to Postcount + Crothian
