Half-and-Half Fondue (Fondue moitié-moitié)

(Half-and-Half Fondue)

Moitié-moitié (lit. half and half) is a traditional cheese fondue originating from Fribourg. The name refers to the fact that the fondue is made with equal amounts of Gruyère and Vacherin Fribourgeois cheese, along with garlic, white wine, potato starch, black pepper, and Kirsch.


The fondue pot is rubbed with garlic – the clove is left in the pot and mixed with all the other ingredients except the Kirsch and pepper. The ingredients are stirred until smooth and creamy. The mixture should not come to a boil, but it should be left to lightly simmer.


Kirsch and pepper are added near the end, and the fonude is kept warm on a burner while everyone dips a piece of bread into the pot.
