Swiss Fondue

 

The ultimate party favorite of the 50's, keep warm in a fondue pot or chafing dish and dunk away to your hearts desire.  Enjoy!

Your host, Brad

1 clove garlic
1 cup dry white wine
1 pound of Swiss cheese, cut into small pieces
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
3 Tbl kirsch

Rub the inside of your chafing/fondue dish with the garlic clove.  Pour the wine into the dish and heat until just simmering; do not let it boil.  Keep heat on low and add the cheese a little bit at a time.  Stirring with a wooden spoon, add all of the cheese until melted.  Stir in the nutmeg, pepper and kirsch.

Using long-handled forks or fondue picks, spear cubes of fresh French bread, sautéed pieces of chicken or beef, or even fruit.  If the sauce becomes too thick, add more warm wine.
