2 cups filtered apple juice
1 pound Gruyere cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/2 teaspoon country-style Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 baguette, torn into 1/2-inch chunks (about 8 cups)

Steps:

  • Bring the apple juice to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Toss the Gruyere and cornstarch in a medium bowl. Add to the simmering juice by the scant handful, whisking constantly until smooth and letting the sauce come to a boil between additions, about 30 seconds.
