I haven’t tried this one yet, but it looks like a winner. I’m sure most people will like it more than my Cheez Whiz Fondue (which I will post someday). Anyway, I got this off the Tillamook Cheese site.

Chef Alec Zablinsky of McCormick’s Fish House developed this simple but luscious recipe that had people who don’t like fondue making return trips to dip.

Ingredients:

  • 1 loaf artisanal dark bread (including whole wheat, pumpernickel or seedless rye, cut into one inch cubes.
  • 1 cup sweet champagne
  • 4 cup heavy cream
  • 3 cup Tillamook® Vintage White Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 tbsp. cornstarch
  • 1/2 tbsp. white pepper

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 180 F.
  2. Place bread in oven for 3 to 5 minutes to dry out slightly.
  3. Remove and set aside.
  4. In a large saucepan, simmer champagne until it reduces to 1/2 cup.
  5. Add cream and return to simmer.
  6. Toss grated cheese and cornstarch together and fold into champagne and cream mixture.
  7. Add white pepper.
  8. Serve in fondue pot surrounded by bread crumbs.

    Serves 6.
