After probably eleven years of owning a second-hand fonue pot we finally had fondue last Saturday night! Eleven or twelve years ago Ross and I went to the city-wide indoor garage sale that's held every January. We saw this fondue pot and thought it would be fun to have. It was a fair price so we bought it.
It has literally sat in our cabinet ever since and we have never used it! We've talked about it and joked about it quite a few times over the years but never actually used it. Ross saw an ad for a cheese fondue kit at Aldi last week and we deicded it was finally time to try fondue!
We put the cheese in the pot to start melting and wondered if something was wrong with it because it smelled bad to us - like a cross between yeast and wine! Ross looked up the types of cheese that were in the kit and found that it does have wine in it and that it pairs nicely with wine. As the cheese melted the taste got a little better, but needless to say, the girls did not like it!
We still had fun with it and dipped some bread pieces into the cheese. We will definitely use this pot again soon, but will use some cheese we know we will like!
