Ingredients for Kirshwasser Swiss Cheese Fondue

3/4 C white wine
1 C Swiss cheese, shredded
1 C Gruyere, shredded
2 T flour or cornstarch
1/2 t garlic, chopped
1/2 lemon
1/2 t ground black pepper
1/2 t nutmeg
1/2 oz Kirshwasser brandy

Method for Kirshwasser Swiss Cheese Fondue

• First mix the cheeses with the flour or cornstarch. (Helps to give the creamy consistency to the cheese.)
• Heat the wine
• Add the garlic and squeeze the lemon juice from half a lemon.
• Slowly add the cheese to the warm wine, stirring with a fork as the cheese melts. Do not add too much at one time. Continue to add the cheese until you have a creamy consistency similar to warm honey.
• Next whip in the nutmeg and black pepper.
• The final step is to add the Kirshwasser brandy around the side of the pot so the edges of the pot burn off the alcohol, and then slowly whip the Kirshwasser into the cheese.
