Fall will be here soon. I can almost hear the leaves rustling now. Have fun with this fondue on a cool fall evening. Ingredients:
4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
4 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch |
1 1/4 cups sparkling apple cider |
1/4 cup lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste) |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
fresh ground black pepper |
cheddar cheese cube |
waffle, pieces |
sausage, slices (summer sausage) |
apple, slices |
Directions:
1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, toss the cheese and cornstarch together.
2. Add the cider and lemon juice to a saucepan; heat over medium heat until just barely simmering.
3. Add the cheese mixture to the saucepan, a handful at a time; stir until the cheese is melted before adding the next handful of cheese.
4. Add in the salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pepper to taste; stir to blend.
5. Let cook on low heat for 3-5 minutes or until thickened.
6. Pour into a fondue pot and keep warm over the burner OR transfer to a crockpot set on LOW to keep it warm.
7. Serve with cheddar cheese cubes, waffle pieces, sausage slices, apple slices, or anything else you can think of.
