Categories     Appetizer

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/3 pound firm alpine-style cheese (such as gruyere)
1/3 pound fontina
1/3 pound gouda
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc)
1 clove garlic (minced)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon brandy
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
Boiled baby new potatoes in their skins (quartered if large)
Lightly steamed broccoli florets
Lightly steamed cauliflower florets
Lightly steamed asparagus
Button mushrooms (wiped clean and stems removed)
Cherry tomatoes
Sliced firm apples (such as Granny Smith)
Cooked sliced hot sausage
Cubed French, sourdough, and/or pumpernickel bread

Steps:

  • Grate all of the cheeses. In a medium bowl, combine the cheeses with the cornstarch, tossing thoroughly to coat all pieces.
  • In a stove-safe fondue pot or large heavy saucepan, bring the wine, garlic, and lemon juice to a simmer over medium-low heat. Add the cheeses to the simmering liquid a little at a time, stirring well between each addition to ensure a smooth fondue. Once smooth, stir in the brandy, mustard, and nutmeg.
  • Arrange an assortment of bite-size dipping foods on a platter. If necessary, carefully pour the fondue into a fondue pot. Serve with fondue forks or wooden skewers. Dip and enjoy!

SWISS FONDUE WITH 4 CHEESES - AN AUTHENTIC RECIPE



Swiss Fondue With 4 Cheeses - an Authentic Recipe image

My family lives on the border of Switzerland in France, and this recipe has been with them forever. I believe it to be a true Swiss Fondue recipe, and wanted to post it for those desiring an authentic taste. In searching the other recipes on Zaar, I was absolutely horrified by some of the ingredients... mustard, worcesterchire sauce, blue cheese!! I hope you enjoy this treasured recipe and the good times that it brings. Please note, that you may not be able to find Appenzeller cheese. You may substitute it by adding larger quantities of Gruyere and/or Emmentaler. Jarlsberg is a bit more mild and won't have the same punch that the others do. ***The formula is: 1/2 lb cheese per person, 1/4 cup of wine per person, 1 clove of garlic per person. Adjust accordingly for larger or smaller dinner parties. This recipe will serve 4. The cheese measurements are flexible and can go up or down by a few ounces or so... you don't need to be exact, but just follow the formula to be: Larger portion of Gruyere and Emmentaler, Smaller portion of Jarlsberg, and Smallest portion of Appenzeller. When purchasing the cheeses, remember that the rind will be cut off and will reduce the amounts of usable cheese by several ounces, so plan to buy a bit larger block of each.

Time 1h25m

Yield 2 lbs cheese, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 long skinny French baguettes, Cut in 1 inch cubes with every cube having a piece of crust on it (French bread)
2/3 lb gruyere cheese
2/3 lb emmenthaler cheese
1/2 lb jarlsberg cheese
1/4 lb Appenzeller cheese
1 cup dry white wine (I use Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio)
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1 1/2 tablespoons kirschwasser (clear Cherry Brandy)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Steps:

  • Cut off all rinds from each cheese.
  • Cut all of the cheeses into cubes.
  • Place cubes in a medium pot (preferably ceramic like Le Creuset) and put on the stovetop just below medium heat.
  • Pour the white wine over the cheese in the pot.
  • Crush the 4 cloves of garlic into the pot.
  • Stir the pot, turning up the heat SLIGHTLY if necessary to melt. Remember that the cheese takes a while to melt, and if you turn up the heat too high in a fit of impatience then you will scorch the bottom of the cheese and have black chunks floating around in it -- so be patient and keep stirring and folding so it does not burn the bottom!
  • Fold the cheese as it progressively melts so that the cubes on top can contact the heated bottom.
  • Once the cheese has fully melted, assess the consistency to determine whether to raise the heat. If the cheese has fully melted, but is VERY thick and hard to stir, turn up the heat a bit (constantly stirring and folding) to melt it further. It should be creamy but not stiff.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the Kirschwasser and the cornstarch together until smooth.
  • When the cheese has reached the fully melted ideal, and it is easy to stir, add the Kirschwasser and cornstarch mixture and mix it in well. The cornstarch thickens the cheese and helps it all to coagulate so you don't have the cheese oils sitting in pools on top of the cheese.
  • Stir in the nutmeg.
  • The fondue should be well blended, creamy, and thick but not stiff. Test by dipping a cube of bread -- If the cheese does not stick or soak into the bread then you may need to turn the heat up, being careful not to burn the bottom.
  • On the otherhand, if it is too thin, be careful not to add too much cornstarch or else you will get stuck with a stiff fondue that is hard to dip into. Try lowering the heat or adding slightly more cornstarch (mixed with Kirschwasser or water first).
  • When the ideal consistency is reached, place the pot over the flame on the tabletop and serve.
  • Bon appetit!

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 ounces freshly grated Emmental cheese
4 ounces freshly grated Havarti cheese
4 ounces freshly grated Monterey Jack cheese
2 ounces freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup dry and crisp white wine
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt
Assorted dippers, such as bread cubes, cherry tomatoes, cubed apple, sliced fennel and roasted vegetables

Steps:

  • Add the cheeses and cornstarch to a medium-size bowl. Using clean hands, toss the cheese with cornstarch to combine.
  • Add the wine, lemon juice, mustard, garlic powder and a pinch of nutmeg to a fondue pot or a heavy bottom ceramic saucepan. Whisk to combine and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Gradually add the cheeses in cup-size increments, being sure to let the cheese completely melt before adding more. Avoid over-stirring, as it could make the fondue stringy. Add salt to taste.
  • Keep warm in a fondue pot and serve immediately. Use fondue forks or wooden skewers to dip dippers into fondue.
