Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 garlic clove, halved
1 cup sweet wine, such as Passito di Pantelleria or Sauternes
3/4 pound Gorgonzola dolce or other blue cheese, such as Stilton, crumbled
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon cream cheese
Kosher salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Crusty bread, apple cubes or grapes, for serving

Steps:

  • Rub cut side of garlic on inside of a large Dutch oven or a heavy-bottomed saucepan, rubbing the bottom and half way up the sides. Add wine and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss Gorgonzola with cornstarch. Add a quarter of the cheese into simmering wine; reduce heat to medium, and whisk constantly until cheese is completely melted. Repeat until all cheese has been added. Whisk in cream cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with crusty bread, apple cubes and grapes.

Overall, I thought this fondue was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This fondue was a bit bland. I think it needed more seasoning.

I had some trouble getting the cheese to melt smoothly. I think I may have overheated it.

I found this fondue to be a bit too sweet. I think I would have preferred it with less honey.

This fondue was a bit too rich for my taste, but I think it would be great for a special occasion.

I wasn't sure how I would like this fondue, but I was pleasantly surprised. The gorgonzola gave it a really nice tang, and the sweetness of the grapes and honey was a perfect complement.

I'm not usually a fan of gorgonzola, but this fondue changed my mind. It was so creamy and flavorful, and the sweetness of the grapes and honey balanced out the sharpness of the cheese perfectly.
