elbow macaroni, butter (the original recipe calls for 9 tbsp. - i like to use 8 tbsp of unsalted - or 1 stick. you probably could get by with even less if you are so inclined...), shredded muenster cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, shredded monterey jack cheese, feel free to up the cheese quotient. and invite me for dinner! ), half-and-half, cubed processed cheese food (don tsp be a velveeta snob like i was - this makes the sauce so darn cheesy/creamy. if you want to remain a v-snob, then go for cream cheese, but it won tsp be the same. but hey, it s your thang - do what you wanna do. heh.), eggs, beaten, salt, dry mustard, ground black pepper, any combination ), ground meat, browned (turkey, chicken, beef, pork), breakfast sausage such as jimmy dean regular or hot (browned and drained - 1 lb.), keilbasa or andouille (cut into chunks and browned in a wee bit of olive oil), fresh chorizo, casing removed, browned and broken up, onion, diced and sauteed until translucent, jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped (for a milder taste, use poblano, or go crazy and use serranos or a habanero), crushed red pepper flake to taste, roasted red pepper, chopped, i have even added, artichoke hearts, drained and loosely chopped, cheesy note : another great cheese combo and 1 of my favorite spins is using shredded asiago, provolone, mozzarella and a sharp cheddar. delish, use a pepper jack cheese in the mix . or a smoked cheddar. i adore cheese and it all works for me and makes this recipe wonderful, comforting and lusciously decadent.

chicken or vegetable stock (you may need a bit more, so i recommend to have at least an additional 1 cup of stock to the side, you can also use warm milk), instant polenta *(the book called for 2 1/3 cups of polenta, i used only 2/3 cups), butter, freshly grated parmesan, plus more to serve, salt and freshly ground black pepper - taste it before seasoning, since the chicken/vegetable stock is already giving it quite a bit of flavor and you don tsp want to over it.

here are the basics of making an excellent cheese fondue , the proper way (or at least the lindysez way)., use good cheese , i use half emmental swiss and gruyere, grate them up and toss them with some salt and a good amount of pepper. let them sit out at room temp so they melt better . cut your bread (good french bread, but not sourdough) into bite sized pieces making sure to have crust on each piece. let those sit out for a while too so they aren tsp too soft., cheese that you use , you are going to use 1 3/4 cups of a dry white wine, such as a fume blanc, a california sauv blanc (don tsp use a new zealand 1 as most are too grassy) or a pouilly-fume. when you are ready to make the fondue, rub the pot with a clove of garlic (we like garlic, so we leave the clove in, but you don tsp need to); then place over a medium heat and add the wine. when the wine comes to a simmer, start slowly adding the cheese, sprinkling in a handful at a time, allowing each addition to melt (my dad said you always have to stir in the same direction, in a figure 8 motion, it works. if you stir in a circle you will end up with a big glop of cheese in the middle of a pot of wine, the figure 8 is key); keep adding until you have a nice thick sauce, then add a splash of kirsch and a pinch of nutmeg. put over a burner to keep it bubbling, and stir often when you dip your bread., a lb of cheese is enough for 4 people; or more if you are serving other things. and the amounts are guesstimates. i almost always grate too much cheese, so only add as much as you need to get the right consistency ; when you dip a piece of bread into the fondue, you want a nice coating of cheese and for the bread to absorb the wine. that s what it s all about, cheese, wine and bread. so use the best you can of each ingredient. and any left over cheese makes for a mighty good ham and cheese omelet.
