One of the most popular ways to eat raclette is served melted over waxy boiled potatoes. 
 
The other popular way to eat raclette is grilled in a raclette pan, a mini pan in the shape of a slice of raclette. A slice of cheese is placed in the pan and then gently heated until melted. Then you are free to use it a bit like you would a fondue, by dipping various items into it.
