Basic Fondue (Fondue Neuchateloise)

Ingredients:
2 1/2 fl Dry white wine
Clove garlic
5 1/2 oz Emmental and Gruyere cheese*
1 tsp Cornstarch
1/2 fl Kirsch**
Shake pepper
Grind fresh nutmeg
6 oz White bread, cubed
Instructions:
(Note: the above measurements are for *each* person.
Multiply by your number of guests.)
* Grated and mixed half and half. ** This is Swiss cherry firewater:
clear, dry-tasting -- *not* "cherry brandy", which is dark and sweet.
Most good liquor stores should carry it, at least one of the US
brands like Hiram Walker, or else maybe Bols. The best Kirsch is
"Etter" brand from Switzerland, but the odds of your finding it are
minuscule. -- In Switzerland, fondue is usually perpared in a
"caquelon", an earthenware dish with a handle, glazed inside; but any
enamelled saucepan can be used, or a not too shallow fireproof dish.
Rub the inside of the pan with half a cut clove of garlic, and let it
dry until the rubbed places feel tacky. Put the wine in the dish and
bring it to a boil. Slowly start adding cheese to the boiling wine,
and stir constantly until each bit is dissolved, then add more. When
all the cheese is in, stir the kirsch into the cornstarch well, then
add the mixture to the cheese and keep stirring over the heat until
the mixture comes to a boil again. Add freshly ground pepper and
nutmeg to taste. -- Remove the dish to on top of a small live flame
(Sterno or alcohol burner) and keep it bubbling slowly. Bread should
have been cubed ~- about 1-inch cubes -- for spearing with fondue
forks and stirring around in the cheese. The old custom is that if
you accidentally lose the bread into the cheese from the end of your
fork, if you're male, you have to buy a round of drinks for the
table: if you're female, you have to kiss everybody. (Hmm.) .
Other fondue info: Do not drink water with fondue -- it reacts
unkindly in your stomach with the cheese and bread. Dry white wine or
tea are the usual accompaniments. Another tradition: the "coupe
d'midi", or "shot in the middle", for when you get full: a thimbleful
of Kirsch, knocked straight back in the middle of the meal, usually
magically produces more room if you're feeling too full. Don't ask me
how this works...it just does. -- The crusty bit that forms at the
bottom of the pot as the cheese keeps cooking is called the
"crouton", and is very nice peeled off and divvied up among the
guests as a sort of farewell to dinner.
