Serving sugestion:
Mix all ingredients except bread in a pot and heat over the stove. When cheese is melted, place it on the table on a réchaud (this is a small methylated spirits burner with a stand) and let the fondue simmer during the meal. Keep stiring the mixture, dipping the bread cubes on the forks into the liquid until the end. This prevents the cheese from burning underneath, which would give it a bitter taste.
Variation:
Choose another mixture of cheese adding about 50 gr vacherin cheese just before serving the fondue, which gives it the right oily smoothness.
