Host your own fondue party with these 10 basic fondue tips to get you ready.

? Krakow® is delightfully meltable with a mild flavor that pairs nicely with other cheese or tastes great by itself
? Mix and match cheeses for a variety of flavors
? Rub a clove of garlic around the inside of your fondue pot for added flavor
? Prepare the melted cheese on the stove before adding to a fondue pot
? Finely shredded cheese melts easily but slowly melting larger blocks over low heat provides superior texture
? Experiment with herbs such as fresh thyme, cayenne, paprika, nutmeg or white pepper
? Wine, beer or champagne enhances flavor and prevents curdling
? Adjust thickness with wine or apple cider instead of water
? Blend ingredients with a figure 8 motion
? Cooked chicken, ham, pork sausage, seafood, apples, hard-crusty breads, french bread, rye bread, Italian bread, pears, cauliflower, broccoli, potatoes wedges, vegetables and pickles make great dipping options for cheese fondue
