Ingredients
- 250 grams Gruyère cheese
- 250 grams Sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 clove Garlic
- 240 milliliters Guinness beer
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Dry mustard powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 500 grams Bread cubes or dipping items (e.g., vegetables, pretzels)
Directions
Step 1
Grate the Gruyère and sharp cheddar cheese, then toss them with the cornstarch to coat. Set aside.
Step 2
Cut the garlic clove in half and rub the inside of your fondue pot or a medium saucepan with the cut sides of the garlic. Discard the garlic afterward.
Step 3
Pour the Guinness beer into the pot and bring it to a simmer over medium heat.
Step 4
Once the beer is gently simmering, lower the heat and gradually add the cheese mixture one handful at a time, stirring constantly in a figure-eight motion until melted and smooth before adding more.
Step 5
Stir in the lemon juice, dry mustard powder, black pepper, and nutmeg. Mix well to combine.
Step 6
Once the fondue is smooth and creamy, transfer it to a tabletop fondue pot to keep warm (if not already in one).
Step 7
Serve immediately with assorted bread cubes, vegetables, or pretzels for dipping. Enjoy the rich and tangy flavors!
