fondue savoyarde
alpine cheesy business
The classic reward after a day in the Alps, a traditional fondue savoyarde combines Beaufort, Comté, Gruyère, garlic, nutmeg and dry white wine with a dash of kirsch. It’s kept warm in a special fondue pot on a burner, while guests dip in cubes of stale bread with long handled forks. Usual side dishes include a platter of charcuterie, cornichons, and salad.
