Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 ounces butterkase cheese (shredded)
8 ounces fontina cheese (shredded)
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 cup dry white wine (Chablis, Chardonnay, or Sauvignon Blanc)
1/4 cup dry sherry
1 tablespoon chopped shallots
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
Granny Smith apple slices
raw broccoli florets
raw cauliflower pieces
baby carrots
hearty bread (cut into bite-sized pieces)

Steps:

  • In a bowl, stir the butterkase and fontina cheeses and the cornstarch together so that the cheese is coated with the cornstarch; this is what will help the fondue thicken.
  • In either a double boiler over simmering water or a fondue pot, heat the wine, sherry, and shallots together for a minute or two.
  • Add approximately half the cheese mixture and whisk constantly until the cheese is melted.
  • Add the remaining cheese by handfuls, whisking until everything is incorporated and the cheese is melted.
  • Stir in the blue cheese and pepper.
  • Just before serving, top the melted cheese with the green onions.
  • Serve with green apple slices, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, and bread for dipping into the fondue.

CHEESE FONDUE MELTING POT CHEDDAR WITH BEER RECIPE - (3.9/5)



Cheese Fondue Melting Pot Cheddar with Beer Recipe - (3.9/5) image

Provided by btaylor

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup Coors Light beer
2 teaspoons garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons dry mustard powder
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
6 ounces medium-sharp cheddar cheese
2 ounces Emmentaler Swiss cheese
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
I used half the beer and substituted milk for rest and used all cheddar, no Swiss. Ended up adding lots more milk to thin it so it was not sticky and stringy.

Steps:

  • If you are using an electric fondue pot, turn it onto medium; otherwise use a double boiler to heat up this mixture. Place beer, garlic, dry mustard, and Worcestershire sauce in the pot and combine well. Shred or cube the cheeses and toss with flour, coating the cheese well. (The flour will help thicken the sauce.) When the beer mixture is warm, add one-third of the cheese and whisk very well. Once the cheese has been incorporated well, add half of the remaining cheese and whisk in very well. Add the remaining cheese and whisk until nice and smooth. Cooks notes: If you do not wish to make this with beer, I cannot give you a suggestion for the beer other than a product like O'Doul's or a near-beer with less than 3.2 percent alcohol. The beer flavor really adds a lot to this dish. Please do not serve this dish to people who do not drink alcohol. Alcohol really doesn't fully cook out of the food. The Melting Pot uses vegetable broth in place of beer for those that do not want alcohol. It is just as good as with the beer.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cheese that melts well. A blend of Gruyère, Emmental, and Appenzeller is a classic choice.
  • Grate the cheese finely so that it melts smoothly.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent the cheese from burning.
  • Cook the cheese over low heat, stirring constantly, until it is melted and smooth.
  • Add a little bit of cornstarch or flour to the cheese if you want a thicker fondue.
  • Season the fondue with salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste.
  • Serve the fondue with bread, vegetables, and fruit for dipping.

Conclusion:

Wisconsin Trio Cheese Fondue is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy texture and rich flavor, this fondue is sure to be a hit with your guests. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give this recipe a try.
