Cheese and Double Smoked Bacon Fondue Recipe

Directions

Toss Gruyère,Fontina and Gouda cheeses with cornstarch until evenly combined; set aside. Set heatproof fondue pot or large,heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat; cook bacon,stirring occasionally,until crisp. Drain on paper towel–lined plate. Wipe out pot.
Add broth to pot; bring to simmer. Add cheese,a handful at a time,stirring until each handful is completely melted before adding the next one. Reduce heat if necessary. (Cheese should melt easily but should not boil.)
Stir in lemon juice,mustard,pepper,nutmeg and half of the bacon. Sprinkle remaining bacon over top. Serve immediately with assorted dippers.

Dippers:
Cubed bread,such as French stick,sourdough or pumpernickel
Boiled baby new potatoes,halved

Replace Fontina with aged Cheddar cheese and add 1 tsp (5 mL) Worcestershire sauce with the mustard for an English twist.
