    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
    4 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, caps diced
    1 shallot, minced
    1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
    1 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
    12 ounces chilled 60% (double crème) Brie cheese (do not use
    triple crème)
    2 ounces chilled Roquefort cheese
    1 cup dry white wine
    1 13-ounce loaf crusty white bread, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
    Vegetables (such as carrot sticks, blanched broccoli, cauliflower and boiled small potatoes)

    Recipe



    Heat oil in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, shallot and thyme; sauté until mushrooms just begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Place flour in large bowl. Cut rind from Brie; discard rind. Cut Brie into cubes; drop into flour. Toss to coat; separate cheese cubes. Crumble Roquefort into same bowl; toss to coat. Place wine in heavy medium saucepan and bring to simmer over medium heat. Add cheese by handfuls, stirring until melted after each addition. Continue stirring until smooth. Stir mushroom mixture into fondue. Season with generous amount of pepper. Transfer to fondue pot. Set pot over candle or canned heat burner. Serve with bread and vegetables.
