Party Recipe--Classic Swiss Fondue

Classic Swiss Fondue

1 clove garlic, halved
2 tbs. flour
2 cups very dry white wine
¼ cup kirsch
1 lb. Swiss Cheese
Nutmeg (Optional)
Salt and pepper (Optional)
Cubes of Sourdough French Bread

Rub the inside of the fondue pot with the garlic; discard the garlic. Heat the wine in the pot until almost boiling. Add the cheese, dredged in flour, by handfuls, making sure each addition has melted and blended before adding more. When all the cheese has been added and the mixture is smooth and thick; stir in the kirsch; add nutmeg, salt and pepper. Serve with the bread cubes for dunking.

This is great with a white wine and fresh fruit for a before meal social!
