Best 10 Mandys Raclette Gruyere Cheese Fondue Recipes

GRUYERE FONDUE DINNER

Steps:

• For the dippers: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Lay the carrots, potatoes and cauliflower on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with half the olive oil, some salt and pepper and 1 teaspoon caraway seeds. Toss to coat. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and push the vegetables over to one side. Lay the green beans, bread cubes, salami and grapes on the empty side and drizzle those with the remaining olive oil, some salt and pepper and the remaining teaspoon caraway. Return to the oven and roast until starting to brown on the edges and the vegetables are tender, an additional 7 to 10 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature with fondue.
• For the fondue: Bring the white wine to a low simmer in a fondue pot. Toss the cheeses, cornstarch, mustard and nutmeg together in a large bowl. Add in handfuls to the simmering wine, whisking to melt before adding more. Continue to add until all of the cheese has melted and the fondue is thick and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the kirsch and serve with the dippers.

MANDY'S RACLETTE GRUYERE CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Rub inside of a 4-quart heavy pot with cut sides of garlic, then discard or set aside garlic. Add wine to pot and bring just to a simmer over moderate heat. (You may as well enjoy a glass at this time.).
• Mix cornstarch with shredded cheese and gradually add cheese to pot and cook, stirring constantly in a zig zag pattern (rather than circular motion) until cheese is melted and creamy. Don't let the cheese boil if you can help it.
• If the fondue is still lumpy after the cheese melts, adding a few drops of lemon juice will help.
• Bring fondue to simmer and cook, stirring, until thickened, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Transfer to fondue pot. Good dipping options are bread cubes, potatoes, broccoli, or apple slices.

Steps:

• Combine the raclette and Gruyere in a bowl and add the cornstarch. Toss well to coat the cheeses in the cornstarch; set aside.

• Slowly add the cheese mix a handful at a time, stirring and allowing each handful to melt completely before adding the next. Repeat until all the cheese is in the pot. Once completely smooth, stir in the kirsch, pepper and mustard. Pour the mixture into a fondue pot with a burner underneath to keep warm. Serve with Crusty Bread, apples and pears.
