Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- 6 ounces feta cheese
- 2 scallions minced
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup walnuts toasted and finely chopped
Directions
In a 2 quart saucepan over medium heat, melt butter the stir in the flour. Stir the 2 together into a paste. Whisk in the milk to create what the French call a bechamel sauce. Drop the temperature a little and simmer the sauce for about 10 minutes so it thickens and the flour taste cooks out. After that it's easy, just fold in the crumbled feta, scallions, and parsley. Season it with salt and a little cracked pepper.
Once the cheese melts it is officially fondue, you can either use a fondue pot with a candle or just leave it in the pot and have everyone eat from there.
Finish it with the walnuts tossed on top. I like to cut up bite size pieces of bread and melon or maybe pitted olives and prosciutto, either way this is always a holiday hit.

i've only made fondue once before and found this recipe very easy to follow and to make. and it was vary good! i served it with cubed, grilled chicken and toasted pita chips for a greek theme.
i eat a gluten free diet, so i adjusted the recipe slightly by using gluten free flour and adding 1/2 tsp. of xanthan gum to thicken it.

We have begun a tradition in my book club to have a fondue party every year at Christmas time. This year I made Tyler's Feta Cheese Fondue and it was a hit! I did find that it was not feta-y enough for me so I added 6 EXTRA ounces of feta - luckily I prepared the fondue the night before and was able to taste it before the party - otherwise I think I would have been disappointed. Once I added the additional cheese it was great and my friends raved about it. Thanks for another winner, Tyler!

i used almonds instead of walnuts, just chopped them in the food processor. i wasn't sure how feta would melt down for a fondue, but-wow- this is heavenly. i wanted to lick the hot fondue pot and not even care about blisters on my tongue!
