Valentine's Day Fondue
2 cups grated Fontina cheese
2 cups grated Gruyere cheese
3 tablespoons flour
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
2 roasted garlic cloves
1 1/2 cups Brut wine
1 tablespoon Brandy
Combine the grated cheeses, flour, white pepper and
nutmeg and set aside.
In a medium sauce pan heat the Brut sparkling wine on
medium-high to just under a boil. Immediately turn the
heat down to a low setting and add the cheese mixture
just a small amount at a time and stirring with a wooden
spoon continuously while the cheeses melt. Add the
roasted garlic cloves. Continue to stir and make sure
the mixture is not sticking to the bottom of the pan.
When the fondue has melted and is a smooth consistency,
add the brandy and stir again. Remove from the heat.
Spoon out the roasted garlic cloves before serving.
Serve in a fondue pot and keep heat at a low
setting.Serve with sliced baguette bread and of course
the rest of the wine! This is just the thing to enjoy by
the fire.
