Fondue is a special and delicious way to start a meal. Don’t have a fondue pot? No problem. Just use individual ramekins as serving dishes.

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces cheddar cheese, cut into small cubes
  • 6 ounces Jack cheese, cut into small cubes
  • 6 ounces Gouda cheese, cut into small cubes
  • 2 tablespoons unbleached white flour
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 teaspoon grated shallots
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • Salt and white pepper, to taste
  • Crusty bread, for serving

Preparation

  1. Dredge the cheeses in the flour. Place the wine and the shallots in a heavy pot over medium heat and bring to a light simmer.
  2. Stir in the cheese a little at a time until the mixture is smooth and all of the cheese is melted. Add the remaining ingredients and transfer to a fondue pot or individual stoneware ramekins.
  3. Serve with crusty bread.

Serving Suggestion

Dipping options are endless for fondue! Try slices of apples and pears, roasted Brussel sprouts, steamed broccoli, cured meats, meatballs, roast fingerling potatoes, raw bell peppers, or bite-sized pasta shapes. Get creative!
