Gouda and Gruyere fondue from Alton Brown. I love the name! Would be fun for Halloween. This stays smooth as long as you stir regularly.

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 garlic clove, halved
1 (12 ounce) bottle hard apple cider
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon brandy
1 pinch kosher salt
2 cups gruyere, grated
2 cups smoked gouda cheese, grated
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon curry powder
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Rub inside of fondue pot or heavy small saucepan with garlic. Pour cider into pot. Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, the brandy and salt and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  • Meanwhile, grate the cheese and toss well with the cornstarch in a large bowl. When the cider just begins to simmer, gradually add the cheese a handful at a time, allowing each addition to melt completely before adding the next. Continue adding cheese and stirring until all cheese is incoporated, about 3 minutes. If mixture starts to bubble, reduce heat to low. Mixture is ready when creamy and easily coats the back of a spoon. Stir in curry and pepper. If cheese seems stringy, add some or all of remaining lemon juice.
  • Move fondue fot to alcohol warmer, and keep stirring frequently while serving.
  • A variety of breads, from pumpernickel to rye, to bagel chunks can be dipped along with blanched cauliflower, broccoli, mushrooms, and potatoes. Try apples, sausages, or soft pretzels.
  • If any fondue is left over, cover with ice water and refrigerate, pour water off and reheat over low heat.
