  • Shred the cheese yourself: Pre-shredded cheese contains additives that can prevent it from melting smoothly. For the best results, shred the cheese yourself using a cheese grater.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: A heavy-bottomed pot will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the fondue from burning.
  • Cook the fondue slowly: Fondue should be cooked slowly over low heat. This will help to prevent the cheese from curdling.
  • Stir the fondue constantly: Stirring the fondue constantly will help to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Serve the fondue with a variety of dipping options: Fondue is traditionally served with bread cubes, but you can also serve it with vegetables,水果, or meat.
