Cheese Tip

​

Always shred your own cheeses from a block. Pre-shredded cheeses have additives that can keep them from melting properly

 

 DIRECTIONS

​

• Rub the inside of a fondue pan with the cut clove of garlic. Pour the wine and lemon juice into the pan and heat gently. Gradually add the cheeses, stirring continuously until melted.

• When the fondue begins to bubble, blend the cornflour with the Kirsch and stir in. Cook gently for 2-3 minutes then add the rest of the seasonings.

 

Notes:

​

• Swap out half of the cheeses for cheddar to create a milder flavor

• Brie is another great creamy addition to fondue

• Traditionally you have to drink a shot of Kirsch Liqueur every time you loose a bread cube from your fork

​

Serving Suggestion:

​

• Cubes of French bread are traditionally served with this fondue, although a selection of fresh salad vegetables, such as spring onions, capsicums, radishes, chicory and celery, add a contrast of textures.
