Instructions

Prepare the pot

Rub the inside of a fondue pot with the cut sides of the garlic clove. Discard the garlic.

Pro tip: This step adds a subtle garlic aroma without overpowering the cheese flavours.

Heat the wine

Pour the white wine into the pot and heat over medium-low until it starts to simmer, but do not let it boil.

Pro tip: Keep the temperature low to prevent the alcohol from evaporating too quickly.

Melt the cheese

Gradually add the grated cheeses, stirring constantly in a figure-eight motion until fully melted and smooth.

Pro tip: Adding the cheese slowly helps to achieve a smooth, creamy texture.

Thicken the fondue

Mix the cornstarch with water to make a slurry. Stir it into the cheese mixture and continue to stir until the fondue thickens.

Pro tip: The cornstarch mixture prevents the cheese from separating.

Season the fondue

Add a pinch of nutmeg and black pepper to the fondue. Stir well to combine.

Pro tip: Adjust the seasoning to taste, if desired.

Serve the fondue

Keep the fondue warm over low heat. Serve immediately with your choice of dippers.

Pro tip: Use a fondue burner to maintain the ideal serving temperature.
