Recipe Summary Simple And Delicious Cheese Fondue

My family is Swiss, so cheese fondue is a big tradition for birthdays. Made with the best cheese and served with pickled onions and cornichons, it simply doesn't get better!

Ingredients | Cheese Fondue Party

24 baby red potatoes

2 quarts water, or amount to cover

2 teaspoons salt

2 tablespoons cornstarch

5 teaspoons kirsch liqueur

3 cups dry white wine

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 pound Emmentaler cheese, shredded

1 pound Gruyere cheese, shredded

1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

2 loaves baguette-style French bread, cut into cubes

1 (16 ounce) jar pickled pearl onions, drained

1 (12 ounce) jar pickled cornichons

Directions

Place potatoes into a large pot with enough water to cover; stir in salt. Bring the water to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain potatoes, and set aside.

Stir the cornstarch and kirsch liqueur together in a small bowl until it forms a paste; set aside.

Combine the white wine and garlic in a large saucepan over medium heat; bring to a simmer. Slowly whisk in the Emmentaler and Gruyere cheese, about 1/2 cup at a time, allowing each batch to melt before mixing in the next. Stir in a random pattern to prevent cheese from clumping into a ball. Whisk in cornstarch mixture and nutmeg to the cheese sauce; stir and cook at a simmer until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes.

Transfer the cheese mixture to a fondue pot. Serve with the cooked red potatoes and French bread for dipping; garnish with pearl onions and cornichons.
