Ingredients

• 2 cups Gruyère cheese, shredded
• 1.5 cups Emmental cheese, shredded
• 1 cup White wine
• 1 Garlic clove, minced
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 teaspoons Water
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg, freshly grated (optional)
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 4 cups Bread cubes, for dipping
• 2 cups Vegetables (e.g., steamed broccoli, carrots, or cherry tomatoes), for dipping
• 1.5 cups Cooked meats (e.g., sausage or chicken), for dipping

Directions

Step 1

Grate the Gruyère and Emmental cheeses and set them aside in a bowl.

Step 2

In the crock pot, add the white wine, minced garlic, and lemon juice.

Step 3

Set the crock pot to low heat and allow the mixture to warm for about 5-10 minutes.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry.

Step 5

Once the liquid in the crock pot is warm, gradually stir in the shredded cheeses, one handful at a time. Stir until each addition has melted completely before adding more.

Step 6

Add the cornstarch slurry to the melted cheese mixture and stir well. This will help thicken the fondue.

Step 7

Season the fondue with freshly grated nutmeg (if using) and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 8

Let the fondue cook on low heat for an additional 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent clumping.

Step 9

Keep the fondue on the warm setting while serving and place the crock pot at the center of the table.

Step 10

Serve with an array of dippers such as bread cubes, steamed vegetables, and cooked meats. Enjoy!
