Cuisinart Electric Fondue Maker

I gave my new Cuisinart electric fondue pot a trial last night. Incredible! I love this thing. Prepared all the food in the fondue pot without transferring the stove, large temperature control, easy cleaning, no cheese solids / oil separation, plus it looks great.

Another good thing was that after 1 / 2 hour of preparation, my wife, our daughter 18 months old, and a friend who was visiting from out of town and I sat around the pot Cuisinart at 6 : 30 PM and was dipping, nibbling and visitors for almost 2 hours. My daughter usually hyper committed to us all the time. He loved to see the bread is dipped into the pot. This is how family traditions to begin with.

The Cuisinart cookbook suggests a real "duh, it's brilliant" idea. My other recipes I've been adding a mixture of cornstarch / water to the cheese to help thicken it. Cuisinart suggests launching the cornstarch (and mustard powder) with grated cheese before adding the wine to a simmer. Beautiful smooth mixture.

This is a fantastic product. Our elders, called sterno fondue pots went to the pile of garage sale.
