Cheese Fondue

This classic Swiss dish is made by melting one or more cheeses with dry white wine, and often kirsch, nutmeg or cinnamon. Fondue is served in a special pot over a gas burner with a fork for each person and cubes of bread for dipping. Similarly, raclette is made by melting a chunk of Swiss raclette cheese over heat. This is traditionally served with potatoes, dark bread and pickles.
