Ingredients
1/2 pound Gruyere, coarsely grated
1/2 pound Emmental, coarsely grated
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 garlic clove
2/3 cup dry white wine (Chardonnay is fine)
4 tablespoons Kirsch (dry cherry brandy)
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg
Freshly ground black pepper
Dipping items of your choice, such as bread cubes or apples
Directions
- Toss the 2 cheeses together with the cornstarch. Rub the inside of a heavy saucepan with the cut garlic clove. Add wine and 2 tablespoons Kirsch and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the cheese mixture, stirring, until mixture is hot and smooth.
- Add remaining 2 tablespoons Kirsch if mixture is too thick. Season with nutmeg and pepper, to taste. Transfer to a fondue pot and serve immediately with dippers of choice.
