Fondue is one of my FAVORITE ways of eating. I know, I know… some people think cooking your food at the table before you actually get to eat it is ridiculous. Me, I think it is FUN. I always go for the experience of a meal if ever possible (see my recent review of Fogo de Chao for further proof of this fact.)
So, when I was asked if I’d like to review a copy of the Fondue Bible there was very little arm twisting involved. I even had three home fondue pots to choose from!
I’ve tried a couple of the recipes from The Fondue Bible so far and have enjoyed them all. However, today I get the pleasure of sharing a recipe from the book that I loved: Smoked Salmon Fondue. This was a fantastic fondue option for brunch. My husband claimed it as the best breakfast I’ve ever made him.
