Tillamook Vintage White Cheese Fondue Recipes

TILLAMOOK VINTAGE WHITE CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Place bread in oven for 3 to 5 minutes to dry out slightly. Remove and set aside.
• In a large saucepan, simmer champagne until it reduces to 1/2 cup. Add cream and return to simmer.
• Toss shredded cheese and cornstarch together and fold into champagne and cream mixture. Add white pepper. Stirring until smooth and blended.
• Serve in a fondue pot surrounded by cubed bread.

CLASSIC CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Add white wine, cherry brandy, garlic clove, cayenne, nutmeg, and cornstarch to a saucepan. Whisk to combine and place on the stove over medium heat. Cook, whisking occasionally, until mixture thickens slightly and you can see wisps of steam in the pan, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add Gruyere and Emmentaler cheeses, one handful at a time, slowly whisking after each addition until melted. Continue whisking until all cheese is melted and sauce is very smooth. Remove from the heat and transfer into a fondue pot to serve.
• Keep sauce warm while serving so it doesn't solidify.

CLASSIC CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Pour the wine and lemon juice into a heavy-based pan over a medium-low heat and warm until steaming. Add all of the cheese, a handful at a time, whisking between each addition until all the cheese has been added. Continue to stir for 4-5 mins until everything is fully melted, smooth and creamy. Mix the cornflour with the kirsch in a small bowl, then stir this into the cheese mixture. Continue to cook over a low heat for a minute more.
• Rub the garlic on the inside of the fondue pot, if you like, then carefully pour the cheese mixture into the pot and immediately place it over the flame. (If you don't have a fondue set, add the garlic along with the wine in step one, then remove and discard it before you add the kirsch mixture.) Serve immediately with crusty bread, boiled new potatoes, vegetable crudités or cornichons for dunking, if you like. You can place the fondue back over a low heat if you need to reheat it after serving.
