This is a recipe I have actually posted before. But, since I was just talking about fondue. I thought I would re-post it. If you can’t make it out of the house for a Valentine’s Day dinner, it doesn’t mean your meal at home can’t be special. I think fondue is a great way to have a romantic dinner at home. This Brie Fondue is Mmmm delicious!!!
Ingredients:
2 cloves garlic, crushed
3/4 cup dry white wine
1/8 cup sherry
1 pound Brie cheese, rind removed and cubed
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 pinch of nutmeg
salt and white pepper to taste
Stuff: Apple slices, Pear slices, Bread cubes, Roasted Potatoes, Radishes, Carrots, cauliflower and Brussel Sprouts.
Directions:
1. Add garlic to fondue pot, then add wine and sherry. Cook on medium-low heat.
2.Toss the cheese cubes in cornstarch to coat. When the wine is hot, add the cheese. Stir slowly. Stir constantly to keep it from scorching on the bottom of the pot. When the cheese has melted, remove it from the heat and in a little nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The fondue should be smooth. If it seems to runny, add more cheese. If it is too thick, add a splash more wine -but be careful not to add to much. It gets liquidy real fast.
Dip Away!
I am suddenly very, very hungry!

This looks delicious! What a great idea for a Valentine’s day meal. We’re staying in this year, so I could afford to buy a fondue pot, right? Mmm!
Yum! Think I might need to buy a fondue pot so I can make some of this for me and my sweetie. Thanks for the recipe! Do you know of other good places to get fondue recipes?
Sounds great, Jen!
Anything you could suggest subbing in for the sherry? I have everything else on hand, but not sherry . . .
Thanks!! 🙂 Happy V-Day Week!
Last Valentines Day my best girls and I had a Singles Ladies Fondue night…waaay too much good cheese and waaaaay too much wine, but a great night 🙂
This looks absolutely delicious! I might have to get a fondue pot this weekend… mmmmmm….
Loving the Valentine’s posts by the way! 🙂
Ooooooo yummy!
This is such a cute idea!
this might be a really stupid question, but do you steam the veggies and toast the bread cubes?
My oldest daughter is in culinary. This looks so mouth watering i may have her make this for dinner. You know, for practice purposes:)
ohh this reminds me of chilly nights eating fondue in Geneva. Great pics, thanks for sharing (and making me crave a cheese feast! ;))
