Basic Cheese Fondue

List of Ingredients




1 garlic clove, split lengthwise
1 cup white wine
12 oz Gruyre cheese, grated (about 4 1/2 cups)
4 oz Emmental cheese, grated (about 1 1/4 cups)
1 1/2 Tbs. cornstarch
3 tbsKirsch
Freshly ground black pepper to taste




Recipe



1.Rub a fondue pot with cut side of the garlic halves. Pour wine into the fondue pot. Heat over medium heat
until the wine is very hot, but not boiling.
2.Meanwhile, toss grated cheeses with 1 tablespoon cornstarch in a medium-sized bowl.
3.Dissolve remaining cornstarch in the Kirsch.
4.Gradually add the cheese mixture a small handful at a time, to the hot wine, stirring continuously with a
wooden spoon.
5.Wait until the cheese is completely melted before adding another handful.
6.When all the cheese has been added and is melted, stir in Kirsch mixture. Cook, stirring continuously, just
until cheese bubbles and the mixture is creamy - about 7 minutes.
7.Stir in pepper to taste.
8.Remove from stove; place over fondue base. Serve with cubes of crusty bread, apple and pear slices.
