Directions

1. Prep the pot:
   Rub the inside of your fondue pot or heavy saucepan with the halved garlic clove. Discard or keep the garlic for extra flavor.
2. Prepare the cheese:
   In a medium bowl, toss the Mild Gouda, Asiago, and Copper Kettle Parmesan with cornstarch to evenly coat. This helps stabilize the fondue.
3. Simmer the wine:
   In your fondue pot, bring the white wine to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat.
4. Melt the cheese:
   Gradually add the cheese mixture, one handful at a time, stirring constantly in a zigzag motion (not circular) until the cheese melts and the mixture becomes smooth and glossy.
5. Add the finishing touches:
   Stir in kirsch and Cello Mascarpone. Continue to stir until fully combined and silky. Season with freshly ground black pepper and nutmeg to taste.
6. Serve:
   Transfer to a fondue pot or small cheese baker set over a low flame or tea light to keep warm and melty throughout serving.
