Meal: Classic Cheese Fondue
Servings: 6
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
1 lb Gruyere cheese, grated
3/4 lb Emmenthal cheese, grated
6 tsp cornstarch
1 1/2 tsp dry mustard
1 clove garlic, peeled, cut in half
2 1/4 cup dry white wine
2 1/2 tbsp Kirschwasser
Directions
1. Place grated cheeses in a large bowl and toss to combine.
2. Add cornstarch and dry mustard; toss to coat cheeses completely.
3. Rub the bottom half of the fondue pot with the cut garlic clove halves.
4. Add wine to the fondue pot; bring to a strong simmer (setting 5).
5. While stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or nonstick whisk, gradually whisk in the grated cheeses, sprinkling in one handful at a time. Don't add any more cheese until each handful is completely melted and smooth.
6. When all the cheese has been added, stir in the Kirschwasser, reduce heat (setting 3) to ensure a very light simmer, and serve.
