CLASSIC CHEESE FONDUE VARIATIONS
Most classic fondue recipes use Swiss or Swiss and Gruyere cheese. Not all cheese made good fondues and will separate into two layers of cheese and wine, or are too runny to be used. These various cheese have been tested and work well in the classic fondue recipe Brick makes a fondue that is moderately sharp about midway between cheddar and Limburger. Fontina has a delicate nutty flavor and muenster is mild.

- Pour in wine and lemon juice. Warm until bubbles rise to the surface. Do not cover or boil.
- Remember to stir constantly from now one. Add a handful of cheeses, keeping the heat medium (do not boil), when melted add another handful. After all the cheese is melted and bubbling add a dash of nutmeg and pepper. Transfer to fondue pot and keep warm over fondue burner.
