  • Grate the cheese finely: This will help it melt smoothly and evenly.
  • Use a dry white wine: A dry white wine will help to balance out the richness of the cheese. Avoid using a sweet wine, as this can make the fondue too sweet.
  • Add a little cornstarch: This will help to thicken the fondue and prevent it from becoming too runny.
  • Season to taste: Once the fondue has melted, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or garlic powder.
  • Serve the fondue immediately: Fondue is best served immediately, while it is still hot and melted. If you need to hold it for a while, you can keep it warm in a slow cooker on the lowest setting.
