• By setting the cooktop to “Low”, you can keep prepared fondue warm
without the risk of scorching or burning.
• Prepare all fondue food dippers before melting fondue sauce.
• Remove cheese from refrigerator and let it warm to room temperature
before melting on the PIC. This also lessens the amount of time the
cheese will be exposed to heat.
• Cheese is optimally melted on Medium/Low (175˚F), but can differ
depending on the type of cheese.
• The temperature at which chocolate melts ranges between 110˚F
and 120˚F. Once chocolate has melted, reduce heat to 110˚F to hold
at the perfect temperature for fondue dipping.
• If chocolate should become separated, add warm heavy whipping
cream or 1 teaspoon melted butter per 4 ounces of chocolate, then
stir to reintegrate.
• Water or any cold liquid should never come into contact with
chocolate. It may harden and become grainy.
• When using a double boiler, make sure no steam or condensation
seeps into chocolate.
• Get creative when coming up with ideas for dipping. Fruit, cakes,
fresh coconut, mini cream puffs, mini donuts, and vanilla wafers are
all delicious, and there are many more possibilities out there!
