Fondue
Ingredients :

​

* approx. 600 g (1.3 pounds) of white bread
* 1 piece of garlic
* 400 g (0.9 pounds) grind Greyerzer cheese
* 200 g (0.44 pounds) grind Emmentaler cheese
* 3 dl (10 fl. ounces) white wine
* 5 cl (1.7 fl. ounces) kirsch
* 2 tea spoons of maizena
* grind pepper
* a small amount of nutmeg

​

Method :

​

1. Cut the bread into small pieces. Some people like the bread a little bit crispy, so you may want to cut it a few hours before you have the fondue.
2. Split the piece of garlic in two and rub the inside of the caquelon with the them. Put the cheese and the wine in the caquelon and cook them on the cook stove. Constantly stir the mixture. Add kirsch and maizena, but keep stirring. Leave them on the stove for a while, but make sure it does not overheat. The mixture tends to spill out of the pot if it gets too hot ! Add pepper and nutmeg, then put the caquelon on the burner on the table.
3. Adjust the heat so that the cheese stays at a constant temperature while eating. Put a small piece of bread on the fork, stir it gentle in the cheese and enjoy. Warning: the cheese is hot, don't get burned.

You may vary the mixture of cheese depending on your taste.
