 Raclette: a semi-soft cheese that is melted on small pans over a stove, served with whole baby potatoes, cornichons (small pickled gherkins) and silverskin onions.

 Vacherin Mont d’Or: a seasonal (September to April) rich and creamy cheese found in the latter stages of the Jura Crest Trail, in particular throughout the Vallée de Joux. Produced and stored in circular pine boxes made from the Jura forests, the dish is pierced and stuffed with garlic cloves and drizzled with a glass of white wine before being baked in an oven. The dish is served over crushed whole baby potatoes.

Self-catering is a possibility, and provisions are generally quite accessible. This is especially true through stages that pass large conurbations, such as Stage 1 where the towns of Baden and Brugg offer plentiful opportunities. Despite the trail following the high Jura plateau, it passes over cols with public transport, alongside farm roads every few kilometres, enabling access to local towns, facilities such as farm shops, markets and convenience stores, and provisions.
