Fondue Normande (Normandy-Style Fondue)

Fondue is usually associated with Savoy and Switzerland, this brings a great twist on the normal fondue. Normandy is known for its cheeses, and it is very common to eat many of these hot and melted so this is a great mix of different French cuisines.

My son and I both love "cheese dip" and I told him I'd be making a French one and he'd have to use bread instead of chips.....he was a good sport and went along with the idea. LOL. This fondue has a bit of sweetness, and the crusty baguette is the perfect counterpoint. A bit expensive to do here in the States on a regular basis, but a really great recipe to try during ZWT. Thanks for sharing.Reply
