SWISS FONDUE



Swiss Fondue image

My husband grew up in Switzerland and it's there where I truly began to appreciate fondue. There are many variations of fondue in Switzerland, but this is the most common version. I love the ritual and it's so fun (and easy!) for entertaining. If you can get your hands on it, a splash of kirsch just before serving really gives fondue a fortifying kick.

Categories     Cheese Fondue

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ½ cups shredded Gruyere cheese
2 ½ cups shredded Emmental cheese
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 clove garlic, halved
1 ½ cups dry white wine
1 (8 inch) French bread, cubed
1 pound new potatoes, raw; baby potatoes
1 cup cornichons, finely chopped
1 cup pickled pearl onions

Steps:

  • Combine Gruyère cheese, Emmental cheese, and cornstarch in a bowl. Mix until the cheese is evenly coated. Set aside.
  • Rub the cut side of the garlic all over the inside of a fondue pot or heavy saucepan. Add wine and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, then gradually add cheese and cornstarch mixture. Stir with a spatula, gently stirring in a figure-of-eight motion, until all of the cheese is added and the fondue is smooth and homogenous. Reduce heat to medium-low if the fondue is boiling too vigorously.
  • Immediately serve fondue, preferably over a warmer. If you used a saucepan on the stove to heat the fondue, you can carefully transfer the fondue to a fondue pot to serve.

CLASSIC CHEESE FONDUE



Classic Cheese Fondue image

This traditional Swiss fondue - the sort you might have encountered in an Alpine ski lodge circa 1972 - calls for an equal amount of Gruyère cheese, for its depth of flavor, and Emmenthaler, for its supple texture; a shot of kirsch, for its cherry aroma and alcoholic oomph; and a little garlic, for bite. It takes all of 15 minutes, and will emerge as magnificently creamy, smooth and velvety as custard, but with a funky, deep flavor that dazzlingly enriches anything you dunk in the pot: bread cubes, apple slices, clementine sections, nuggets of salami, pretzels, tofu. It is even marvelous spooned onto a romaine lettuce salad in place of dressing.

Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 small garlic clove, halved
1 cup dry white wine
3/4 pound Gruyère cheese, grated
3/4 pound Emmenthaler, raclette or Appenzeller cheese, grated
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 to 2 tablespoons kirsch (optional)
Kosher salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Freshly grated nutmeg, to taste (optional)
Crusty bread cubes; steamed broccoli or cauliflower; carrot, celery or fennel sticks; cubed apple; seedless grapes; clementine sections; cubed salami, soppressata or kielbasa; roasted chestnuts and/or dried apricots, for serving.

Steps:

  • Rub cut side of garlic on inside of large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed saucepan, preferably cast iron, rubbing the bottom and halfway up the sides. Add wine and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss cheeses with cornstarch. Add a handful at a time to simmering wine, stirring until first handful melts before adding next. Reduce heat to medium and stir constantly until cheese is completely melted. Add kirsch, if using, and heat until bubbling, about 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg, if desired. Serve with crusty bread and other accompaniments. (See variations below)

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the cheese from scorching.
  • Grate the cheese finely: This will help it to melt smoothly and evenly.
  • Use a dry white wine: This will help to balance out the richness of the cheese.
  • Add the cheese slowly: This will help to prevent it from clumping.
  • Stir the fondue constantly: This will help to prevent it from burning.
  • Serve the fondue immediately: It will start to thicken as it cools.

Conclusion:

Garlic Swiss Fondue is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. It is perfect for a party or a romantic dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a fondue that will impress your guests.
