French Word of The Day

Raclette.


The term is derived from the French word, "to scrape", but is in fact a cheese dish that is scraped onto people's plates. It is a melted cheese, eaten with meat, potatoes and other dipping items. It is a common traditional dish where I'm staying. The funny thing is, when typed into the translator, it means squeegee. Awesome.
