Fondue Recipe

Traditionally when fondue is made you begin with rubbing the garlic cloves in the fondue pot & then add wine & cheese to it.I made fondue for my family on Christmas in the same traditional manner not letting it loose it's flavor.

Great recipe! Try using Emmenthaler and Gruyere Swiss cheeses for wonderful nutty flavour- must be imported from Switzerland for the right taste. Shanti/Mary-Anne
