Mattys Brie Cheese Fondue Food

MATTY'S BRIE CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Rub the garlic all over the inside of your fondue pot, leaving the crushed pieces in the bottom. You can also make fondue in a regular sauce pan and transfer to the fondue pot, but why get two pans all crazy cheesy? Add the white wine and sherry to the pot and heat over medium-low heat.
• Toss the cheese cubes in cornstarch to coat. When the wine is hot, add the cheese. Stir slowly with a wooden spoon at first and then use a whisk. Stir constantly to keep it from scorching on the bottom of the pot. When the cheese has melted, remove it from the heat and grate in a little nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The fondue should be smooth and coat a wooden spoon. If it seems to runny, add more cheese. If it is too thick, add a splash more wine --sparingly.
• Prepare your fondue pot base and keep fondue warm over low heat. Get out the good linen napkins and set the table. This is a meal to be proud of!

EASY CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix the vinegar with the cornflour and place in a heatproof bowl with the cheeses. Set over a pan of boiling water. Slowly melt the cheese, stirring occasionally. When it's nearly melted, add the crème fraîche and a little black pepper, if you like. Lower the heat and keep warm.

BRIE FONDUE

Steps:

• First, heat the oil in a medium-size heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Then, add the mushrooms, shallot, and thyme and sauté until the mushrooms begin to soften (about 2 minutes).
• Next, place the flour in a large bowl. Cut the rind from your Brie and discard it. Cut the Brie into cubes and drop into the flour. Toss the cubes to coat, separating the cheese cubes.
• Crumble the Roquefort into the same bowl and also toss to coat.
• Pour the wine into a medium-size heavy saucepan and bring to a slow simmer over medium heat. At this point, add the cheese by handfuls, slowly, and stirring all the while until each addition of cheese is melted. Keep stirring until the Brie fondue mixture is smooth.
• Next stir in the mushroom mixture into the fondue. Season with generous amount of pepper and transfer it all to a fondue pot.
• Set the fondue pot over a candle or a canned heat burner. Or if you have an electric fondue pot, make sure you are familiar with the settings before using it. Serve with bread and vegetables (see below).
