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.

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.

Time 30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups shredded gruyere (6 ounces, 180 g)
1 1/2 cups shredded emmenthaler cheese (6 ounces, 180 g)
1/2 cup shredded Appenzeller cheese (2 ounces, 60 g)
2 -3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 garlic clove, halved
1 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 dash kirsch, a swiss liquor (optional)
fresh ground pepper, to taste
1 pinch nutmeg
crusty bread, cut into large cubes

Steps:

  • The optimal choice of pots is a steel or cast iron medium sized pot (2 quart) with an enameled interior.
  • In a medium sized bowl, combine the three cheeses and toss with the flour.
  • Rub the inside of the fondue pot with the garlic halves.
  • Add the wine and heat over medium heat until hot, but not boiling.
  • Stir in lemon juice and kirsch.
  • Add a handful of cheese at a time to the wine mixture, stirring constantly and not adding more cheese until the previous has melted, bubbling gently and has the appearance of a light creamy sauce season with pepper and nutmeg.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and place over an alcohol safety burner on the table.
  • Adjust the burner flame so the fondue continues to bubble gently.
  • Serve with plenty of crusty bread cubes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will greatly affect the flavor of your fondue. Look for a cheese that is specifically designed for fondue, such as Gruyère, Emmental, or Appenzeller.
  • Grate the cheese finely: This will help it melt smoothly and evenly.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the fondue from burning.
  • Cook the fondue slowly: Don't rush the process. The fondue should be cooked over low heat until it is melted and smooth.
  • Stir the fondue constantly: This will help to prevent it from separating.
  • Season the fondue to taste: You can add a variety of seasonings to your fondue, such as garlic, nutmeg, and paprika.
  • Serve the fondue with a variety of dipping options: Some popular dipping options include bread, vegetables, and fruit.
