From about.com. We add cayenne to ours. It really works best if you have an actual fondue pot! :) Don't skip the extra sharp cheddar. It will have a blander flavor without it!

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 c shredded irish cheddar cheese (10 ounces)
1 1/2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 Tbsp butter
2 medium cloves garlic, finely minced (about 2 teaspoons)
12 oz irish stout beer
2 Tbsp irish whiskey
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground mustard powder

Steps:

  • 1. Toss the shredded cheese with the cornstarch in a large bowl and set aside.
  • 2. Melt the butter in a large saucepan or saucier over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant and just beginning to brown, about 1 minute. Pour in the stout and whiskey, stir in salt and mustard powder. When the sauce begins to simmer, reduce heat to medium low.
  • 3. Add one (1) handful of the cheese and cornstarch mixture to the pot and whisk until the cheese is completely melted. Continue adding handfuls of the cheese mixture to the pot, stirring until each addition is melted before adding the next addition of cheese; this will take 2 to 3 minutes. When all of the cheese has been melted, continue to cook and stir until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer the fondue to a bowl and serve immediately with cubed bread, sliced apples, or leftover corned beef as dippers.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cheddar cheese for the best flavor. A sharp cheddar will give you a more intense flavor, while a milder cheddar will be less overpowering.
  • Grate the cheese yourself instead of buying pre-shredded cheese. This will help the cheese melt more smoothly and evenly.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to make the fondue. This will help to prevent the cheese from burning.
  • Cook the fondue over low heat, stirring constantly. This will help to prevent the cheese from curdling.
  • Add the whiskey and other flavorings to the fondue once the cheese has melted. This will help to prevent the alcohol from evaporating.
  • Serve the fondue with a variety of dipping options, such as bread cubes, vegetables, and fruit.
  • Keep the fondue warm over a low flame or in a fondue pot.

Conclusion:

Cheddar whiskey fondue is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich and flavorful cheese sauce, it is sure to be a hit with your guests. So next time you are looking for a fun and festive way to entertain, give cheddar whiskey fondue a try!
