Swiss Cheese Fondue

i've finally made it!  a gift from my friend francie and we're good to go!  we made the dippers with roasted; cipollini, mushrooms, Genoa salami, red peppers, and fresh baguettes.

Ingredients:

    8 oz imported Jalsberg, shredded
    12 oz Gruyere cheese, shredded
    4 tablespoons cornstarch
    1 garlic clove, peeled
    1 1/2 dry white wine
    1 tablespoon cherry brandy, such as kirsch
    1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
    Assorted dippers

Directions

In a small bowl, coat the cheeses with cornstarch and set aside. Rub the inside of the ceramic fondue pot with the garlic, then discard
.
Over medium heat, add the wine and and bring to a gentle simmer. Gradually stir the cheese into the simmering liquid. Melting the cheese gradually encourages a smooth fondue. Once smooth, stir in cherry brandy, and mustard.

Arrange an assortment of bite-sized dipping foods around fondue pot.
