Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 garlic clove, peeled
1 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
8 ounces Gruyere cheese, rind trimmed and discarded, and shredded (about 2 1/2 cups)
8 ounces Emmentaler cheese, rind trimmed and discarded, and shredded (about 2 1/2 cups)
3 ounces Appenzeller cheese, cut into cubes (about 1/2 cup)
4 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon kirsch
A few gratings of fresh nutmeg
Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • What to dip: crusty mixed grain bread, French or Italian bread, cut into bite-sized cubes (leave a piece of crust on each cube); Cooked chicken breast, skin and bone removed, cut into bite-sized cubes; cooked garlic sausage or knockwurst, cut into bite-sized wedges; boiled new potatoes; asparagus spears, broccoli florets or cauliflower florets prepared for dipping.
  • Rub the inside of a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan with the garlic; discard the garlic. Add the wine and lemon juice and bring to a bare simmer over medium heat.
  • In a medium bowl, toss the Gruyere, Emmentaler, and Appenzeller cheeses with the cornstarch. A handful at a time, stir the cheese mixture into the wine, stirring the first batch until it is almost completely melted before adding another. The fondue can bubble gently, but do not boil. Stir in the kirsch and season with the nutmeg and pepper.
  • Transfer to a cheese fondue pot and keep warm over a fondue burner. Serve immediately with dipping ingredients

This fondue was a bit too thick for my taste. I would have liked it to be a little thinner and creamier.

Not bad, but not great. The fondue was a little bland for my taste, and the texture was a bit grainy. I think I would have liked it better with a stronger cheese, like a cheddar or a blue cheese.

Absolutely divine! The fondue was rich, creamy, and oh-so-flavorful. The Gruyère, Emmental, and Appenzeller cheeses melted together perfectly. We sopped it up with crusty bread and it was sheer bliss.

This was my first time making fondue, and it turned out great! The cheese was perfectly melted and gooey, and the wine and spices gave it a delicious flavor. I served it with bread, vegetables, and fruit, and everyone loved it.
