CHEESE FONDUE

Category: Dips - Hot

1 clove garlic, halved
1 cup dry white wine or chicken broth
1 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 cups Gouda cheese, (rind trimmed), shredded
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 tbsp cornstarch
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg, salt and white pepper

Dippers:
Cubed or torn bread and/or sliced apples or pears

Rub inside of a small pot with garlic. Add wine and lemon juice over medium heat. Toss together both cheeses and cornstarch in a large bowl. When the wine comes to a boil, slowly add the cheese mixture, whisking continuously until smooth. Bring fondue to a simmer (high heat may cause fondue to separate.) Season with nutmeg, salt and pepper. Transfer to a small slow cooker set to low and serve with the selection of dippers. Fondue should hold on low setting for up to 1 hour.

Serve with dippers.
