AUTHENTIC SWISS FONDUE



Authentic Swiss Fondue image

A few years ago, while travelling through Freiburg in Switzerland, I tasted the best cheese fondue that I had ever had or have since. Unlike most of the uninspiring fondues that I had sampled before, this was a delightful blend of subtle flavours that complimented each other perfectly. I have prepared this dish a dozen or so times now to family and friends and it has never let me down.

SWISS FONDUE



Swiss Fondue image

My husband grew up in Switzerland and it's there where I truly began to appreciate fondue. There are many variations of fondue in Switzerland, but this is the most common version. I love the ritual and it's so fun (and easy!) for entertaining. If you can get your hands on it, a splash of kirsch just before serving really gives fondue a fortifying kick.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ½ cups shredded Gruyere cheese
2 ½ cups shredded Emmental cheese
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 clove garlic, halved
1 ½ cups dry white wine
1 (8 inch) French bread, cubed
1 pound new potatoes, raw; baby potatoes
1 cup cornichons, finely chopped
1 cup pickled pearl onions

Steps:

  • Combine Gruyère cheese, Emmental cheese, and cornstarch in a bowl. Mix until the cheese is evenly coated. Set aside.
  • Rub the cut side of the garlic all over the inside of a fondue pot or heavy saucepan. Add wine and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, then gradually add cheese and cornstarch mixture. Stir with a spatula, gently stirring in a figure-of-eight motion, until all of the cheese is added and the fondue is smooth and homogenous. Reduce heat to medium-low if the fondue is boiling too vigorously.
  • Immediately serve fondue, preferably over a warmer. If you used a saucepan on the stove to heat the fondue, you can carefully transfer the fondue to a fondue pot to serve.
