Fondue “Blue Cheese”
Rub the Fondue dish with the clove of garlic, afterwards take it out.
In a bowl, combine the cheeses and cornfour. Set aside.
Combine the wine and thyme in the Fondue dish and simmer for 1 minute. Whisk in the cream, cayenne and black pepper. When the cream mixture begins to bubble, reduce the heat to medium-low.

Tip 😉
Blue Cheese is a very deeply flavored cheese. It is salty, pungent, spicy and moldy. The texture is also very rich. One of the best ways to match this depth of flavor is with a sweet wine
The sweetness of the wine clings to the fat in the cheese and creates an amazing taste sensation 😉
