Swiss Wines for Cheese Fondue and Raclette

Cheese Fondue and Raclette

Two traditional Swiss dishes from the Swiss Alps and Jura mountain areas.

Cheese Fondue /fɔ̃dy/ is a traditional Swiss dish of melted cheese served in communal pot (caquelon or fondue pot) over a portable stove. The dish was popularized in the mid-1900's with it's origins pointing to Canton Fribourg or Neuchâtel a few hundred years ago. Cheese Fondue consists of 1 or 2 or more regional cheeses, the most popular being the "moitié-moitié" (half-half in french) with a mix of Gruyère and Vacherin. Another popular mix consists of Gruyère and Emmental.

Raclette /rəˈklɛt/, a distinctive semi-hard cow milk cheese with origins in the Swiss Alps (Valais), has a history that goes back to medieval times. Raclette is also the name of the popular dish based on heating the Raclette cheese and scrapping it off the melted part.

SERWIS CANAL+ WARSZAWA

Problemy techniczne z odbiorem telewizji cyfrowej Canal+ powinniśmy zgłaszać telefonicznie do autoryzowanego instalatora z Warszawy i województwa mazowieckiego rekomendowanego przez centralny obsługujący zarówno nowych jak i obecnych klientów platformy cyfrowej. Nie polecamy samodzielnych prób naprawy usterek z odbiorem, możemy spowodować uszkodzenie dekodera cyfrowego i utratę gwarancji, którą otrzymaliśmy na cały okres umowy abonenckiej.

USTAWIENIE ANTENY SATELITARNEJ

Kąt ustawienia anteny satelitarnej powinien wynosić około 18 stopni od płaszczyzny poziomej, jednak praktycznie może być trochę inny ponieważ nie zawsze mamy pewność, że maszt do którego przykręcamy zestaw satelitarny jest przytwierdzony idealnie pionowo. Podłączamy miernik do wyjścia konwertera i szukamy sygnału przesuwając czaszę w poziomie aż do momentu wychylenia paska pomiarowego, później korygujemy położenie anteny w pionie aż do uzyskania 100% jakości na wyświetlaczu.
