- 1 approximately 6-inch [15-cm] round Vacherin cheese
- 3 or 4 peeled cloves garlic, split
- 1 bottle dry white wine, from Switzerland if possible, and even better, from the canton of Vaud
- 6 to 8 medium-size potatoes
|
- Preheat oven to 350°F [180°C].
- Leaving cheese into its selling box, remove cover.
- Pierce cheese into approximately 10 places; press one piece garlic into each opening.
- Cover then tightly wrap box into al foil.
- Transfer into a small high sided oven-safe dish.
- Pour in quite a bit of dry white wine, almost up to the top of the box.
- Transfer into preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes [Vacherin is ready when really liquid inside].
- Meanwhile, bake potatoes into preheated oven; peel then cut potatoes into large pieces.
- Just before serving, warm-up 2 individual plates.
- To serve, transfer cheese into its baking dish and baked potatoes onto the table.
- Using a large spoon, pour liquid cheese over already cut baked potato pieces transfered onto warm individual plates.
