As mentioned above, the most common Swiss cheese fondues are made using: The most common recipes call for a simple 'half & half' ratio of shredded Gruyère and Emmental cheese melted with white wine.
Many fondue recipes call for lemon juice, white wine or chicken broth. This recipe doesn’t require any of those! Just a few very basic ingredients (butter, milk, corn starch, salt) along with cheddar and swiss cheese. That’s it!
The optimal choice of pots is a steel or cast iron medium sized pot (2 quart) with an enameled interior. In a medium sized bowl, combine the three cheeses and toss with the flour. Rub the inside of the fondue pot with the garlic halves. Add the wine and heat over medium heat until hot, but not boiling. Stir in lemon juice and kirsch.
Directions. Add wine and 2 tablespoons Kirsch and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the cheese mixture, stirring, until mixture is hot and smooth. Add remaining 2 tablespoons Kirsch if mixture is too thick. Season with nutmeg and pepper, to taste. Transfer to a fondue pot and serve immediately with dippers of choice.
