  1. This is SO NOT how the traditional Swiss Cheese Fondue is made in GRUYERE where it originated. This made me laugh though, and laughter is the best medicine.🤫🤭😁🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The garlic (2 cloves) is chopped up small and added to the HOT WINE which you add the cheeses to when it starts to bubble. GARLIC is a MUST in a Traditional Cheese Fondue, and NUTMEG is a BIG NO! NO! Only GENEROUS amount of freshly ground BLACK PEPPER on top of the ready to serve fondue. Juice from half a LEMON is also a good touch to add to the bubbled wine. OH! You mix the Corn Starch with KIRSCHWASSER (Brandy or Cognac also work … even Vodka believe it or not!) and add this mixture when the cheese has melted in the hot wine. You only ever stir clockwise … and if the right quantities are used, the fondue is NEVER this thick! 🤭🤫🤣
