Best Formula Three-Cheese Fondue

The best cheeses for this fondue are Gruyère, Emmentaler, and sharp Cheddar. We tried a couple of different combinations and this recipe was our favorite. The Gruyère gives it a sweet and nutty flavor, the sharp Cheddar makes it tangy, and the Emmentaler blends it all together.

Ingredients

  • *1 cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc)
  • *1 tablespoon butter
  • *1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • *7 ounces Gruyère cheese, shredded
  • *7 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
  • *7 ounces Emmentaler cheese, shredded

Directions

Step 1

Bring the wine to a gentle simmer in a compact pot over a low flame.

Step 2

At the same time, liquefy butter in a mid-sized pot using low-to-medium heat. Incorporate the flour by whisking until the mixture becomes a dense paste.

Step 3

Mix the wine into the paste until uniform. Gradually incorporate the Gruyère, Cheddar, and Emmentaler, whisking until the cheese has melted, which takes roughly five minutes.

Step 4

Pour the molten cheese blend into a fondue vessel. Maintain warmth by keeping it over a low flame.
