Hard Cider Fondue

1) In a medium saucepot over medium heat, combine cider, broth, worcestershire, and garlic. Simmer to heat through, about 5 minutes.

2) Meanwhile, combine all grated cheeses in a dry bowl. Add corn starch and toss to combine unti cheese is lightly coated.

3) Add cheese a spoonful at a time to the saucepot, and stir to melt and combine. Once all cheese has been incorporated and mixture is smooth (about 15 minutes), sprinkle in salt, cayenne and bourbon/whiskey (if using).

4) Transfer to a fondue pot with low heat underneath and enjoy with your favorite dippers!

My favorite dippers include:

– meatballs, chicken sausage, chicken fingers, chorizo, mini hotdogs
– Triscuits, bread cubes, pretzels
– mushrooms, bell peppers, fingerling potatoes, olives, carrots, celery, radishes, broccoli, cauliflower, string beans
– apple slices, pear slices, grapes, pineapple cubes
