Mattys Brie Cheese Fondue Recipes

BRIE CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Rub garlic all over the inside of your fondue pot. Then rub it in a saucepan, leaving the crushed pieces in the bottom. Add the white wine to the saucepan and heat over medium-low heat.
• Toss the cheese cubes in cornstarch to coat. When the wine is hot, add the cheese. Stir slowly with a wooden spoon at first and then use a whisk. Stir constantly to keep it from scorching on the bottom of the pot.
• When the cheese has melted, add green onion and remove pot from the heat. Grate in a little nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• The fondue should be smooth and coat a wooden spoon. If it seems to runny, add more cheese. If it is too thick, add a splash more wine --sparingly.
• Pour the cheese into your fondue pot and keep fondue warm over low heat.

CHAMPAGNE BRIE FONDUE

Steps:

• Create a slurry with the cornstarch and Kirsch and set aside briefly. Cut the chilled brie into small pieces.
• Rub inside of a saucepan with the garlic clove. Over medium heat bring Champagne and lemon juice to a gentle boil. Reduce heat to low and stir in the brie. Blend the cornstarch/Kirsch slurry into the cheese pot and stir for a couple of minutes until the mixture is smooth and thick. Transfer to a fondue pot over a flame and season with white pepper. Serve with bread cubes on fondue forks.

FOUR CHEESE FONDUE WITH ASSORTED DIPPERS

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.

CLASSIC CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Toss cheeses in a medium bowl with flour, cayenne pepper, and white pepper to coat, and set aside. Heat wine in a fondue pot over medium heat until it starts to bubble, about 6 minutes.
• Stir in cheese mixture, a little at a time. Stir in kirsch. Continue to cook, stirring, until cheese has melted, 6 minutes. Stir in lemon juice. The mixture should be smooth and almost bubbling. Transfer pot to its stand set over a burner for up to 1 hour. Serve immediately with bread.

CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Rub inside of a fondue pot with garlic; discard garlic. Pour cider or wine into pot, and place over medium-low heat. When liquid starts to bubble, start adding cheeses by the handful, stirring until melted and combined.
• Whisk together lemon juice and cornstarch in a small bowl until cornstarch dissolves; stir into cheese mixture. Continue stirring until mixture is smooth and bubbling slightly, about five minutes. Season with nutmeg and pepper.
• Transfer fondue pot to the table, and keep warm over the fondue pot warmer. Serve with bread and pickled vegetables.

MATTY'S BRIE CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Rub the garlic all over the inside of your fondue pot, leaving the crushed pieces in the bottom. You can also make fondue in a regular sauce pan and transfer to the fondue pot, but why get two pans all crazy cheesy? Add the white wine and sherry to the pot and heat over medium-low heat.
• Toss the cheese cubes in cornstarch to coat. When the wine is hot, add the cheese. Stir slowly with a wooden spoon at first and then use a whisk. Stir constantly to keep it from scorching on the bottom of the pot. When the cheese has melted, remove it from the heat and grate in a little nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The fondue should be smooth and coat a wooden spoon. If it seems to runny, add more cheese. If it is too thick, add a splash more wine --sparingly.
• Prepare your fondue pot base and keep fondue warm over low heat. Get out the good linen napkins and set the table. This is a meal to be proud of!

BRIE FONDUE

Steps:

• First, heat the oil in a medium-size heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Then, add the mushrooms, shallot, and thyme and sauté until the mushrooms begin to soften (about 2 minutes).
• Next, place the flour in a large bowl. Cut the rind from your Brie and discard it. Cut the Brie into cubes and drop into the flour. Toss the cubes to coat, separating the cheese cubes.
• Crumble the Roquefort into the same bowl and also toss to coat.
• Pour the wine into a medium-size heavy saucepan and bring to a slow simmer over medium heat. At this point, add the cheese by handfuls, slowly, and stirring all the while until each addition of cheese is melted. Keep stirring until the Brie fondue mixture is smooth.
• Next stir in the mushroom mixture into the fondue. Season with generous amount of pepper and transfer it all to a fondue pot.
• Set the fondue pot over a candle or a canned heat burner. Or if you have an electric fondue pot, make sure you are familiar with the settings before using it. Serve with bread and vegetables (see below).
