What You’ll Need

  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 ½ cups of dry white wine
  • 1 pound of high-quality cheese (Gruyère and Emmental are popular choices)
  • 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
  • A pinch of nutmeg
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste
  • Crusty bread, cubed into bite-sized pieces

Step 1: Prepare the Fondue Pot

Rub the inside of your fondue pot with the garlic clove. This will infuse a subtle garlic flavor into your cheese mixture.

Step 2: Grate the Cheese

Coarsely grate the Gruyère and Emmental cheeses and set them aside. It’s important to use high-quality cheese for the best flavor and consistency.

Step 3: Heat the Wine

Pour the dry white wine into your fondue pot and heat it over low heat until it simmers. Let it simmer for a few minutes to reduce the alcohol content.

Step 4: Add the Cheese

Gradually add the grated cheese to the simmering wine, stirring continuously until the cheese melts completely. Make sure you add the cheese in small batches to prevent clumping.

Step 5: Create the Cheese Mixture

In a separate bowl, combine the lemon juice and cornstarch. Mix until the cornstarch is fully dissolved. Then, gradually add this mixture to the melted cheese while stirring continuously.

Step 6: Season Your Fondue

Add a pinch of nutmeg and freshly ground pepper to taste. Stir well to evenly distribute the seasonings throughout the cheese mixture.

Step 7: Serve and Enjoy!

Transfer your delicious, velvety fondue to the prepared fondue pot and keep it warm over low heat. Serve with the crusty bread cubes to dip into the cheese. Enjoy the rich flavors and the delightful experience of communal dining fondue provides!
