Finely grate the Gruyère and Emmentaler and mix them in a bowl. Let the cheese come to room temperature.
Rub the inside of the fondue pot with the halved garlic clove for a subtle flavor base.
Pour the white wine into the fondue pot and warm over medium heat until the wine just starts to simmer. Add a splash of lemon juice.
Add the cheese in small portions to the warm wine, stirring each time in a figure-eight motion with a wooden spoon until the cheese is completely melted. Don’t let the pot get too hot, otherwise the cheese will separate.

Season with nutmeg, pepper and optionally a pinch of paprika. Taste and adjust to your preference.
Place the fondue pot on the burner in the center of the table on a low flame so the cheese stays warm without boiling. Arrange the bread cubes, vegetables and cold cuts around it and serve immediately.
Give everyone a fondue fork and enjoy together. Remember to stir occasionally so the fondue stays silky.

Cooking mode Prevents your screen from going to sleep

A cast-iron fondue pot is your best friend for this recipe. Cast iron distributes heat evenly and keeps the cheese at the right temperature for longer without hot spots. That way your fondue stays creamy and tasty from start to finish, even if the company lingers at the table.

Feel free to vary the dippers: think cherry tomatoes, roasted peppers, apple slices or even a slice of pear. The combination of sweet fruit and salty cheese is a real winner. And for the ultimate Christmas moment, put a chocolate fondue on the table after the main course for dessert.
