Cheese Fondue

At least once a year around the holidays my dad make cheese fondue. It is a cheesy sauce in which you dip bread, veggies, and meat. Whenever my family has fondue we have broccoli, bread, and some sort of teriyaki chicken my dad makes. I know this sounds weird but to be honest it tastes really good in the fondue, and alone with rice. The main reason I love fondue is because it is in the middle of the table and you can dip whatever and however much food you want into the dish of molten cheese. I hope you enjoy this recipe for cheese fondue as much as I do!

Ingredients:
1/2 pound shredded Swiss Cheese
1/2 pound shredded Gruyere
1 clove garlic
1 1/2 cups white wine
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons corn starch
3 tablespoons sherry wine
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

First rub the chopped garlic around the fondue pot, then take it out. Turn the heat on, and add the white wine and lemon juice.

Over a low to medium heat add the swiss cheese and gruyere cheese slowly to the pot while constantly stirring until the cheese is melted. After the cheese is melted bring the mixture to a bubble for 30 seconds.

In a cup add the corn starch and sherry wine, then mix together to make a slurry. Add this slurry mixture to the fondue and let the fondue boil again for 30 seconds. If the fondue is lumpy add more wine, and if too watery add more cheese.

Bring the fondue to the table and serve with your favorite fondue items. Suggestions are bread, potatoes, sausage, grilled chicken, and broccoli.

Enjoy this amazing cheesy dish!
