Classic cheese fondue with white wine, kirsch and bread.
About Cheese Fondue
Swissmilk’s classic cheese fondue brings a grated fondue-cheese blend together with white wine, lemon juice and kirsch. Garlic flavours the pot, with bread cubes as the accompanying dipping food.
The cheese supplies the rich dairy base, balanced by wine and lemon acidity. Kirsch adds its spirit note, while pepper and nutmeg provide the simple final seasoning.
The cheese forms a smooth, shared mixture around the bread cubes. Swissmilk presents the fondue lightly simmering at the table, where the bread is dipped into the pot.
