When I first made this recipe, I was worried about it containing alcohol – but it burns off. I’ve found alcohol bases are best to make the cheese creamy and smooth. We often use bud light.
Don’t skip the flour – you need a thickener.
Freshly grated cheese is a must. Store-bought will have anti-clumping additives.
It is best to prepare the cheese fondue right before you serve it.
A double broiler is recommended to prevent burning.
