Quebec City's Fondue Parmesan

Gingerbee's Note:

If you've ever visited this wonderful little city in North America, you have seen this listed as an appetizer on the menu. Served on a bed of lettuce perhaps with a sweet fruit ketchup, this lovely creamy, crunchy traditional food of Quebec is a snap to make and will be one you'll serve over and over again.
