Ingredients
1/3 lb (150 gr.) of gruyere cheese
1/3 lb (150 gr.) of emmental cheese
1 ½ cups (250 ml.) of dry white wine
1 garlic clove,
salt, ground pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg
French bread cut in small pieces
1 tspn of corn starch
1-2 tsps of Kirsch (rum or brandy works just as well)
Grate the gruyere cheese and slice the emmental cheese thinly. Mix all ingredients in a bowl.
Add a touch of garlic taste to the fondue by rubbing the garlic clove all over the inside edges of the fondue pot (discard garlic clove). Add white wine and simmer, but don’t bring to a boil. Slowly add both cheeses while stirring constantly. Be sure to use a wooden spoon for stirring and use the number eight stirring method (zig zag). Don’t stir in circular motions. This is done so that both cheeses have an even melt. Do this for about 5 to 10 minutes
Mix corn starch and Kirch (rum or brandy) together in a small cup. Season with a pinch of freshly ground black pepper and a little nutmeg. Add slowly to cheese while continuing to stir. When fondue has slight thickening remove from fire.
Serve with French bread slices. Each person will dip a piece of bread in the melted cheese with the help of a special fondue fork.
Add a fresh salad and white wine to complete your meal.
