Gruyere Cheese Fondue Recipes

GRUYERE FONDUE DINNER

Steps:

• For the dippers: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Lay the carrots, potatoes and cauliflower on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with half the olive oil, some salt and pepper and 1 teaspoon caraway seeds. Toss to coat. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and push the vegetables over to one side. Lay the green beans, bread cubes, salami and grapes on the empty side and drizzle those with the remaining olive oil, some salt and pepper and the remaining teaspoon caraway. Return to the oven and roast until starting to brown on the edges and the vegetables are tender, an additional 7 to 10 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature with fondue.
• For the fondue: Bring the white wine to a low simmer in a fondue pot. Toss the cheeses, cornstarch, mustard and nutmeg together in a large bowl. Add in handfuls to the simmering wine, whisking to melt before adding more. Continue to add until all of the cheese has melted and the fondue is thick and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the kirsch and serve with the dippers.

BEST FORMULA THREE-CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Bring the wine to a boil in a small saucepan.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium low heat. Whisk in the flour, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly to avoid sticking and burning.
• Once the flour is cooked, stir the wine into the flour mixture slowly. Use a whisk to smooth the mixture. Slowly add cubes of Gruyere, Cheddar, and Emmentaler cheese; stir until cheese is melted. Transfer cheese mixture to fondue pot. Keep warm over low flame.

SWISS GRUYERE FONDUE

• Toss cheese with cornstarch in large bowl.
• Bring wine, lemon juice and garlic to simmer in heavy large saucepan over high heat.
• Reduce heat to medium.
• Whisk 1 handful of cheese into wine until almost melted.
• Repeat with remaining cheese in about 5 more batches.
• Continue whisking until completely melted and fondue begins to bubble, about 1 minute.
• Whisk in Kirsch and nutmeg.
• Transfer to fondue pot and keep warm over fondue burner.
• Accompany with a platter of assorted dippers, fondue forks and plates.
• DIPPERS: Cubed crusty bread, boiled new potatoes, rounds of smoked sausage, cubed cooked chicken, blanched asparagus, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower florets and carrot sticks.

MANDY'S RACLETTE GRUYERE CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Rub inside of a 4-quart heavy pot with cut sides of garlic, then discard or set aside garlic. Add wine to pot and bring just to a simmer over moderate heat. (You may as well enjoy a glass at this time.).
• Mix cornstarch with shredded cheese and gradually add cheese to pot and cook, stirring constantly in a zig zag pattern (rather than circular motion) until cheese is melted and creamy. Don't let the cheese boil if you can help it.
• If the fondue is still lumpy after the cheese melts, adding a few drops of lemon juice will help.
• Bring fondue to simmer and cook, stirring, until thickened, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Transfer to fondue pot. Good dipping options are bread cubes, potatoes, broccoli, or apple slices.

GRUYèRE FONDUE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine cream, flour, and Worcestershire sauce, and set aside.
• In a large heavy saucepan, sauté onion in butter with bouillon cubes over high heat, stirring until cubes are completely dissolved.
• Reduce heat to medium. Add cream mixture, whisking constantly until thickened.
• Gradually add cheeses, and stir until melted and smooth. Mixture will become very thick.
• Add wine a little at a time and mix well. Wine tends to thin out mixture, so add as much as needed to reach desired consistency and flavor.
• Transfer the fondue to a heated fondue pot and keep warm over low heat.
• Accompaniments:
• Lightly toasted French bread cubes
• Fresh cooked shrimp
• Steamed broccoli
