    Source of Recipe


    Fondue: Great Food to Dip, Dunk, Savor and Swirl by Rick Rodgers

    List of Ingredients




    2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
    1 medium onion, chopped
    1/2 cup finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil) or sun-dried tomato salad bits
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1/2 tsp dried basil
    1/2 tsp dried oregano
    1/4 tsp crushed hot red pepper flakes
    1 cup dry white wine
    1/2 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded (about 3 cups)
    4 ounces sharp Provolone cheese, shredded (about 1-1/2 cups)
    2 ounces freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese (1/2 cup)
    1 Tbsp cornstarch

    For dipping:
    Crusty French or Italian bread, cut into bite-size cubes with crust
    Focaccia, cut into cubes
    Salami cubes
    Pepperoni wedges
    Baby artichoke hearts
    Raw red bell pepper slices
    Raw zucchini wedges

    Recipe



    In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until translucent, about 4 minutes.

    Add the sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, basil, oregano and hot pepper flakes. Stir until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the wine and bring to a simmer. In a medium bowl, toss the cheeses with the cornstarch.

    Stir in the cheeses, a handful at a time, into the saucepan, stirring until the first addition is melted before adding another. Let the fondue come to a bare simmer, but do not boil.

    Transfer cheese to a fondue pot and keep warm over a fondue burner. Serve immediately with the dipping ingredients of your choice.

    Yield: 6 to 8 servings
