- Choose the right cheese. Hard cheeses like cheddar, Gruyère, and Emmental are good choices for fondue. You can also use a blend of cheeses for a more complex flavor.
- Shred the cheese finely. This will help it melt smoothly and evenly.
- Use a good quality white wine. A dry white wine is best, such as a Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc.
- Add some seasonings to taste. Garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika are all good choices.
- Keep the fondue warm over low heat. If it gets too hot, it will curdle.
- Serve the fondue with a variety of dippers, such as bread cubes, vegetables, and fruit.
