Ingredients

  • 8 ounces imported Swiss cheese, shredded

  • 8 ounces Gruyere cheese, shredded

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • 1 garlic clove, peeled

  • 1 cup dry white wine

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon kirsch (cherry flavored brandy)

  • Pinch nutmeg

  • French bread, cut into 1″ cubes

Directions

  • In a small bowl, coat the cheeses with cornstarch and set aside. Rub the inside of the ceramic fondue pot with the garlic, then discard.
  • Over medium heat, add the wine and lemon juice and bring to a gentle simmer. Gradually stir the cheese into the simmering liquid. Melting the cheese gradually encourages a smooth fondue. Once smooth, stir in kirsch and nutmeg.
  • Use long-handled forks to spear bread cubes, then dip and swirl in fondue with stirring motion to keep fondue from sticking. If fondue becomes too thick, add a little heated wine. 4 to 6 servings.
