For the cheese lovers at Galavante, here is a cheese fondue recipe sure to impress your guests at the next party:
- First, prep your dipping ingredients. Boil the potatoes, blanche the vegetables (if you’re using vegetables), and cut the bread into bite-sized cubes.
- For a faint garlic flavor, slice the garlic clove in half and rub it against the bottom of the fondue pot. (For a more intense garlic flavor, mince the garlic and add it in step 5.)
- Light the burner and place the pot on top. Add the wine until it is lightly boiling. Add in the shredded cheese.
- Stir until the cheese has melted completely, and no more lumps remain.
- Add in the paprika, black pepper and fondue spice (and minced garlic, if using). Stir until everything is well combined and even.
- Serve the fondue alongside your dipping ingredients and start dipping. Be sure to keep stirring the fondue throughout, to keep it homogenized.
Optional: Once your fondue pot is almost empty, turn up the heat slightly and let the leftover cheese get crispy. Break the cheese disk into even pieces and share with your guests.
