Fondue is a Swiss dish that involves melting cheese and serving it in a communal pot. Diners use long forks to dip pieces of bread into the melted cheese, creating a warm and flavorful experience. Traditional cheese fondues often use a blend of Gruyère and Emmental cheeses, combined with white wine and garlic for added flavor. In addition to cheese, fondue can also refer to other variations, such as chocolate fondue, where melted chocolate is served for dipping fruits, marshmallows, or cookies. This social dining experience encourages sharing and interaction among guests, making it a popular choice for gatherings and celebrations.
