Preparation

Melt butter in a cheese fondue pot over medium heat, then cook garlic and onion until slightly golden.

Deglaze with vinegar and reduce by half.

Add beef broth and pesto. Bring to a boil and let simmer 5 minutes.

Wrap cheese cubes with meat and cook them in the broth.

Tips

In this new twist on fondue, sliced meat covers the cheese and both are cooked in a flavourful broth, resulting in a tasty pairing. Tradition has sharp Canadian cheddar paired with beef. But try new pairings with chicken wrapped around Canadian mild gouda and pork around a nutty Canadian swiss for a fondue party that’s sure to be remembered.
