Two Cheese Fondue Recipes

CHEESE FONDUE

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!

FONDUE FOR TWO

Steps:

• Rub the inside of a small enameled cast-iron saucepan or stovetop fondue pot with the cut sides of the garlic clove; discard the garlic. Add the wine, lemon juice and mustard to the saucepan and bring just to simmer over medium heat.
• In a medium bowl, mix the gruyere, emmentaler and gouda with the cornstarch. Gradually stir the cheese mixture into the saucepan in handfuls, stirring until the fondue is creamy and smooth, about 5 minutes; do not overcook. Season the fondue with salt, then sprinkle generously with paprika; serve right away with bread, sliced apples, salami and raw vegetables for dipping.

FONDUE FOR TWO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss potatoes with oil; roast 10 to 12 minutes. Flip; push to one side and add bread cubes. Continue to roast until potatoes are golden and tender and bread is crisp, 8 to 10 minutes more.
• Reserve 1 tablespoon wine. In a small cast-iron pot, heat remaining wine with kirsch over low. Slowly add both cheeses, stirring in one direction until melted. Add nutmeg. In a small bowl, stir together lemon juice, cornstarch, and reserved wine. Slowly stir into pot; continue to cook over low heat, stirring, until mixture thickens and comes together, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a fondue pot; keep warm. Serve with fennel, apple, salami, bread cubes and sticks, and potatoes.
