Fondue was originally invented by shepherds. They needed a hearty meal, as they spent a long time on alpine pastures. So the shepherds took cheese, bread and wine. After a few days, the cheese dried out, and they needed to somehow "revive" it. They put it in a pot, poured wine over it and heated it. And then they dipped pieces of bread in the melted cheese. For a long time, fondue was food for the poor, but then the aristocrats also appreciated the dish. And fondue itself ceased to be just cheese. It began to be made, among other things, with chocolate.

Step 1

Boil the cream. Pour the cream into a thick-bottomed saucepan. Place the container over medium heat. Bring the cream to a boil. Turn off the stove.

Step 2

Prepare the fondue. Combine the chocolate broken into pieces with the cream and stir until smooth. Pour the resulting mixture into a special fondue pot so that it does not harden.
