How To Make Smoked Gouda Fondue

Step One: Shredded Gouda

Start by shredding the gouda after cutting off the rind.

I bought smoked gouda in a block that had to be shredded but the regular gouda I was able to find already shredded.

Step Two: Melting Cheese

Heat the heavy cream until it starts to simmer. Then, whisk in the shredded gouda about 1/4 cup at a time until melted.

Step Five: Chicken

The restaurant we get the smoked gouda fondue from serves it with jerk marinaded chicken. You can find my recipe for Jamaican Jerk Chicken here.

After cooking the chicken, cut it into cubes for dipping.

Step Six: Apple

There is just something about the combination of cheese and apples. So, of course, sliced apples should be included as dippers.

We prefer Granny Smith apples but go ahead and use your favorite.

Step Seven: Smoked Gouda Fondue

Pour the smoked gouda fondue into a fondue pot, mini crockpot, or a bowl.

Arrange toasted bread cubes, green apple slices, and cubed Jamaican jerk chicken around the fondue.
