Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups beef broth (beer or wine can also be used)
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice (this will help the cheese to not separate, you won't taste it)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1-2 cloves garlic crushed
  • 2 teaspoon ground dry mustard (mustard powder)
  • 3 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 6 cups sharp cheddar cheese shredded or cubed
  • 4 wedges laughing cow cheese original, creamy Swiss

Instructions

  • In a fondue pot or saucepan over LOW heat, combine beef broth, milk, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, dry mustard, and cornstarch. Don't let it boil or even come to a simmer.
