Karls Meats Goudalisious Fondue Recipe:


This recipe uses only Gouda cheese for a delicious and slightly smoky fondue.


Ingredients:


1 cup dry white wine (See below recipie for wine suggestions)

1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

12 ounces gouda cheese (rind trimmed), shredded

4 ounces aged gouda cheese (rind trimmed), shredded (for extra smoky flavor)

2 tablespoons cornstarch

1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg

1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)

Crusty bread, cut into cubes (for dipping)


Instructions:


Combine wine and lemon juice: In a small pot over medium heat, combine the white wine and lemon juice.


Coat cheese in cornstarch: In a large bowl, toss together the shredded gouda cheeses and cornstarch.

Melt cheese: Once the wine mixture simmers, slowly whisk in the cheese mixture a little at a time (about ¼ cup at a time). Continuously whisk the mixture until the cheese is melted and smooth before adding more.


Season and serve: Once all the cheese is melted, remove the pot from heat and whisk in the nutmeg and cayenne pepper (if using). Transfer the fondue to a fondue pot or heat-resistant serving dish and keep warm over low heat.


Unleash Your Creativity: Enjoy the rich flavours of this Gouda cheese fondue, perfect for any occasion! Vary your dipping experience with an array of options beyond bread. Explore crunchy vegetables, artisan bread selections, or even surprise your guests with fruit skewers. Experiment with a dash of other seasonings to taste, such as garlic powder, dried thyme, or paprika, directly into the fondue for an extra depth of flavour. This recipe provides the perfect base to unleash your creativity in the kitchen. For more inspiration and to discover the best cheeses to use, visit our store!

Since this recipe uses only Gouda cheese, a dry white wine that complements the creamy texture and slightly nutty flavor of gouda is ideal. Here are some excellent choices:


Pinot Gris: This medium-bodied wine offers a touch of sweetness that balances the richness of the cheese without being overpowering. It also has a subtle floral aroma that can enhance the overall experience.


Sauvignon Blanc: Known for its crisp acidity, Sauvignon Blanc cuts through the creaminess of the fondue and adds a refreshing note. Look for wines from cooler climates for a brighter acidity.


Unoaked Chardonnay: Unoaked Chardonnay offers a good balance between fruit flavors and acidity. It won't overpower the gouda and will provide a smooth texture that complements the cheese.


Ultimately, the best wine for your fondue depends on your personal preference. If you're unsure, try a small amount of each wine and see which one you enjoy most with the cheese.
