MELTING POT WISCONSIN TRIO CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• In a bowl, stir the butterkase and fontina cheeses and the cornstarch together so that the cheese is coated with the cornstarch; this is what will help the fondue thicken.
• In either a double boiler over simmering water or a fondue pot, heat the wine, sherry, and shallots together for a minute or two.
• Add approximately half the cheese mixture and whisk constantly until the cheese is melted.
• Add the remaining cheese by handfuls, whisking until everything is incorporated and the cheese is melted.
• Stir in the blue cheese and pepper.
• Just before serving, top the melted cheese with the green onions.
• Serve with green apple slices, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, and bread for dipping into the fondue.
