Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp finely chopped shallots
1 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups brut champagne or sparkling wine
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 lb brie cheese, well chilled, rind removed
8 oz crabmeat, drained well and picked over to remove any shell or bits of cartilage
dash of cayenne pepper
salt
1 tbsp minced fresh chives

Directions:

Preparation:
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring frequently, for 1 to 2 minutes, without allowing it to color. Whisk in the champagne and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, whisking until thickened and smooth. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes.
Gradually stir in the Brie, letting each addition melt before adding more. Stir in the crab and cayenne. Season with a dash of salt if needed.
Transfer to a fondue pot, preferably ceramic or enameled cast iron, and sprinkle the chives over the top. Regulate the heat under the pot, if possible, so that the cheese fondue remains warm, not hot.
