Grate the cheese finely so that it melts evenly. You can use a food processor or a box grater.
Use a heavy-bottomed pot 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.
Serve the fondue with a variety of dipping options, such as bread, vegetables, or fruit.
If you have any leftover fondue, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
