Provided by Rie McClenny

Categories     Appetizers

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

8 oz brie cheese, 1 wheel
1 fresh chive, chopped, for garnish
broccoli floret, steamed, for serving
1.5 lb baby potato, boiled, halved, for serving
mushroom, sauteed, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C). Prepare a 9-inch (22 cm) round cake pan with a 3½- inch (8 cm) ramekin in the center and set nearby.
  • Melt the butter in a large pan over medium-low heat. Add the onion and sauté until caramelized, stirring occasionally for about 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.

MATTY'S BRIE CHEESE FONDUE



Matty's Brie Cheese Fondue image

My husband and I love to indulge in special 'date nights', which always include a fun movie, a bottle of wine, nibbles, and his fabulous fondues. I help by preparing the accoutrements to his masterpieces. This is by far the best creation yet!

Provided by OREGONCOASTGIRL

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Dips and Spreads Recipes     Cheese Dips and Spreads Recipes     Hot Cheese Dip Recipes

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 cup dry white wine
¼ cup sherry
1 pound Brie cheese, rind removed and cubed
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg
salt and white pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Rub the garlic all over the inside of your fondue pot, leaving the crushed pieces in the bottom. You can also make fondue in a regular sauce pan and transfer to the fondue pot, but why get two pans all crazy cheesy? Add the white wine and sherry to the pot and heat over medium-low heat.
  • Toss the cheese cubes in cornstarch to coat. When the wine is hot, add the cheese. Stir slowly with a wooden spoon at first and then use a whisk. Stir constantly to keep it from scorching on the bottom of the pot. When the cheese has melted, remove it from the heat and grate in a little nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The fondue should be smooth and coat a wooden spoon. If it seems to runny, add more cheese. If it is too thick, add a splash more wine --sparingly.
  • Prepare your fondue pot base and keep fondue warm over low heat. Get out the good linen napkins and set the table. This is a meal to be proud of!

2 oz Brie cheese, rind removed
2 teaspoon Bacon, cooked crispy, cooled and diced
6 oz or 1.5 cups Emmenthaler Cheese, shredded
6 oz or 1.5 cups Gruyere Cheese, shredded
3 tablespoons Cornstarch
1 Lemon, cut in half for juicing
10 turns Black pepper, fresh ground
1 tablespoon Scallions, fresh chopped
FLAMING TURTLE CHOCOLATE FONDUE
4 oz Milk chocolate*, melted
4 oz Caramel syrup
2 oz Pecans, roasted and chopped
1 TBL 151 proof rum
It is best to use couverture or coating chocolate melted with a small amount of milk or cream to loosen the consistency for all chocolate fondues.
BANANAS FOSTER FONDUE
4 oz White chocolate, finely chopped
1/2 Banana, thinly sliced
4 oz Caramel syrup
1 TSP Banana liqueur
1 TSP Spiced rum

Steps:

  • BACON & BRIE CHEESE FONDUE Mix the shredded Emmenthaler and Gruyere Cheese and toss it with cornstarch to aid in thickening and improve the viscosity of the fondue. Place a metal bowl over a saucepan filled with 2 inches of water. You may also use a conventional double boiler. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. When steam is visible, reduce the heat to medium. Add the white wine to bowl, and then add the Brie cheese. Using a fork, stir for approximately 30 seconds, slightly breaking up the Brie cheese in the base. Add the bacon and continue to stir the contents of the bowl. Add 1/3 of the shredded cheese blend and stir using the fork until fully incorporated into liquid. Then add another 1/3 and continue stirring until melted. Last, add the rest of the cheese and stir using a circular whipping motion until smooth. Squeeze the lemon juice into the melted fondue and then add fresh ground black pepper. Fold these two ingredients into the cheese fondue 4-5 times. Top the fondue with the fresh chopped scallions. Use dippers such as bread cubes, vegetables, cubed sausage, and cornichons. FLAMING TURTLE CHOCOLATE FONDUE Heat melted chocolate in desired fondue pot. Pour the caramel syrup in a pool at the center of the warm chocolate. Add the rum to the pot and light with a long fireplace lighter. As the rum burns away, carefully stir the mixture together. Garnish with chopped pecans. Use dippers such as fresh fruits and berries, pound cake, brownies, cheesecake, etc. The possibilities are endless so be creative, have fun and enjoy! BANANAS FOSTER FONDUE Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler set over simmering water, stirring constantly; or place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, stirring every 30 to 45 seconds. Place the banana slices in the bottom of a warm fondue pot. Pour the chocolate over the bananas. Add the caramel and stir gently. Add the liqueur and rum and stir gently to combine. Keep fondue warm over low heat.
