This  recipe comes from my sister Brittany–she says

“This is a deliciously creamy, warm cheese fondue that honestly has the best taste – just a mellow hint of garlic and spice. It is truly wonderful! My in-laws have a tradition of fondue on New Year’s Eve and this one is a favorite. Fondue parties are such a blast. If you haven’t done one before, try it out and use this recipe for one of the pots. It’s a crowd pleaser for sure! Have fun!!”

Description

This is a deliciously creamy, warm cheese fondue that honestly has the best taste – just a mellow hint of garlic and spice. It is truly wonderful! 


Ingredients

Scale

2 cups grated Swiss cheese
2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
1 3/4 cups chicken broth
1 clove garlic, minced
3 Tb cornstarch
Dash of pepper
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup chicken broth
French bread, cubed


Instructions

Melt Swiss cheese and Monterey Jack cheese in 1 3/4 cups chicken broth with garlic added. Keep broth barely under a boil, stirring until cheese is completely melted (it will be stringy).

Combine cornstarch, pepper, salt, nutmeg, Worcestershire sauce in 1/4 cup chicken broth. Add to cheese mixture, stirring until smooth. Put fondue mixture into a preheated fondue pot and keep at temperature hot enough to maintain desired texture without scorching.

Cut French bread into chunks. Sourdough rolls are great too. Cut so each bite size piece has a bit of crust on it. It is a good idea to cut the bread and leave it out in the open for awhile before dipping into the fondue. The fresher the bread, the more difficult it is to successfully dunk in the cheese fondue. All that is left to do is eat and enjoy!

Tribute to my sweet Mom

I developed my love of cooking at an early age “helping” my Mom bake cookies, make dinner, and knead bread. She had quite the well of patience! She is the one that taught me about measurements, leavening agents, egg-washes, the basic white sauce, and numerous other mysteries of the kitchen!  I cherish the memories I have of learning to cook at her side. Thank you Mom! You instilled in me a respect for work as well as a joy in creating delicious things. I love you! xoxo
