Fondue for two sounds nice, but lately I’ve been doing fondue for five. My kids get so excited when they hear we are having fondue and although we’re talking some serious cheese, I know I will get them to eat their veggies.
Fondue is the perfect family night IN. Get your kids involved by letting them choose the cheese and their favorite items to dip. You can all delight in the ooey gooey goodness. Serve a salad on the side and dinner is served.
It ‘s best to make fondue in a special pot, I use this one from Emile Henry, it is the perfect size for 6-8 people and looks great going from stove top to table top.
I a tried a variety of different flavors, from spicy to savory to sweet, using different cheeses, different liquids and different dippers and you really can’t go wrong.
Cheddar Cider Fondue With Pretzel Bites
This cheddar fondue is made with a mix of Natural & Kosher cheddar and Monterrey Jack. I used hard apple cider as the liquid, but you can easily use apple juice, sparkling wine or beer. Our favorite dippers were homemade soft pretzels and lightly steamed broccoli, so you get the perfect crunch.

DIY – How To Make The Perfect Pesto Sauce
On a hot June day, I open the freezer in my mother’s kitchen looking for a tray of …
My pesto fondue was made using a blend of Mozzarella, Muenster and Fontina, once the cheese had melted and startled to bubble, I swirled in a Spinach Walnut Pesto. I made some crispy polenta squares to dip and roasted artichoke bottoms, mushrooms and cauliflower.
Dill Havarti Fondue
The Dill Havarti fondue was equally delicious with oven-roasted fingerling potatoes. To make a fondue you just need a bit of liquid, some cornstarch to thicken the base and lots of cheese. When hot and gooey, take it to the table and set on a trivet or special warming rack with asterno light to keep the cheese melty.

Mushrooms, bread cubes, tiny meatballs.
Fruit and more fruit
I’ve never tried fondues before, probably because I don’t have a pot for it! Guess I would try pepper, tomatoes, bread…
I love anything cheesy, so I would dip in veggies, chips, pretzels, that would be amazing

I have two fondue sets, one for beer and cheese fondue and then for dessert, chocolate fondue?
For a cheese fondue, I may set up an assorted array of crackers. After all, cheese and crackers do pair well together, don’t they? Of course, I’d like the cubed breads and the veggies.
For a spicy cheese blend, I could have some tortilla chips on hand for dipping. I know I’ll have the skewers, but I could still make a nice homemade cheese sauce in the pot.
For chocolate fondue, the fruit is always nice. I wonder if chunks of cake could be dipped in there? Oreos (they’re kosher!) would work.
The pesto fondue with polenta cubes sounds so yummy and is very beautiful too.
There are so many things I love to dip in fondue! My favorites are bread and strawberries

I love using lightly steamed asparagus to dip in fondue.
