Cheese Fondue

I've been making this fondue since the early '70s. This recipe uses two types of cheese and always turns out super smooth. I like to serve it with cubes of crusty bread for dipping, but baby potatoes, bell peppers, and sliced apples also work great!

  • Ingreadient
    • 1 cup dry white wine
    • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (or cornstarch)
    • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
    • ½ pound shredded Swiss cheese
    • ½ pound shredded Gruyère cheese
    • ¼ teaspoon salt
    • 1 (1 pound) loaf French bread, cut into 1 inch cubes

Direction

  1. Bring wine to a simmer in a fondue pot over medium-low.
  2. Stir in flour and nutmeg until well combined.
  3. Add Swiss and Gruyère cheeses, 1/4 pound at a time, mixing after each addition until cheese is melted. Season with salt.
  4. Serve with cut-up French bread.
