So I love Fondue but I dont love lots and lots of cheese so I found a white wine fondue instead that I would assume is healthier and Very Tastey…
White Wine Fondue
1 bottle of white wine (if its more that 2 people or you can spare 2 bottles for just 2 of you- its better because it evaporates fast)
1 (2 inch) cinnamon stick
1/4 tsp ground coriander
10 black peppercorns, crushed
4 whole cloves
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp celery salt
1/4 tsp garlic salt
Pour wine into a saucepan and season with cinnamon stick, coriander, pepper, cloves, sugar, salt, celery salt, and garlic salt. Let it sit for 1 hour (the longer it sits the better) then bring to a boil. Filter thru a fine sieve or strainer with cheese cloth ( or i just pour right into the fondue pot. Bring to a boil in fondue pot ( i have an electric one).
Best Cooked with chicken, rabbit or veal. (Kev uses chicken, I use tofu)
Veggies: zucchini, summer squash, carrots, Bell peppers, Cauliflower
cut up and boil some potatoes to then finish cooking in the fondue pot.
DESSERT!!!!
Nutella Fondue
2/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup Nutella (can be found in the peanut butter asile at the grocery store)
2 or 3 tbsp Frangelico (hazelnut liqueur)
1/2 cup very finey chopped hazelnuts or almonds
strawberries
poundcake
rasberries
banana
apple
etc.
In fondue put or saucepan bring heavy cream to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and add in Nutella in 3 to 4 aditions, whisking until smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in Frangelico
and nuts- if you are not using a fondue pot transfer to a heavy bowl that will retain the heat. Dip away!!!
i forgot to tell u that we got to eat at the melting pot in georgia with mike and nichole. It was really cool. I didn’t realize that they serve you raw meat and you cook it in the fondue pot. I gotta get me one of those! It was so much fun!
