Herb Fondue

September 25th, 2008 · No Comments

Cleaning up I found a recipe for fondue that I’ve used a bunch of times with great success.

  • Cheese: Gruyere, Emmental, Buford or Comte.  Pick at least 2.
  • a couple sprigs of Rosemary, finely chopped
  • some Thyme, finely chopped
  • Cup of dry white wine (swiss wine if you can get it)
  • shot of Kirsch
  • clove of garlic
  1. Shred  the cheese using a grater
  2. Rub the inside of the fondue pot with a clove of garlic
  3. Bring one cup of dry white wine to a gentle simmer.
  4. Gradually add the shredded cheese, stir while adding.
  5. After it’s all melted and smooth, add one shot of Kirsch, the rosemary and thyme.
  6. Serve with squared chunks of french bread.
