Classic Cheese Fondue
1 1/2 cups dry white wine
1 fresh garlic clove, sliced in half
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 cups (8 ounces) Emmenthaler cheese, grated
3 cups (8 ounces) Gruyere cheese, grated
Black pepper and salt, to taste
Pinch ground nutmeg
4 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 loaf of French bread, cut into 11/2-inch cubes
1 bunch of seedless grapes
2 to 4 cups of assorted blanched fresh vegetables, such as carrots, cauliflower, asparagus, broccoli, new potatoes
In a fondue pot or small heavy saucepan, heat white wine with garlic over high until boiling. A romantic dip Valentine's Day is the perfect time for rediscovering fondue, which is again bringing people together.
Combine lemon juice with cornstarch in small bowl and stir into boiling wine. Cook for 1 minute while stirring.
Reduce heat to medium and stir in cheese. Keep stirring until all cheese has melted. Fondue should look thick and shiny. Turn off heat, and stir in seasonings as desired. Place over fondue warmer and serve immediately.
Serves 4 as an entree or 10 to 12 as an appetizer.
