Strawberries are ideal for dipping in melted chocolate.
Fondue is a fun and delicious way to entertain guest. Hot oil can be heated in a fondue pot to cook individual bites of meat. Vegetables and crusts of bread can be dipped in cheese melted in a fondue pot. One of the more luscious ways to use a fondue pot is for melting chocolate, which is then used for dipping fruit or cookies. Melting the chocolate can be done directly in the fondue pot.
Instructions
1. Break the chocolate into small pieces and place in the fondue pot.
2. Add the milk, cream or seasoning the recipe calls for. If you are melting the chocolate without any milk or cream added, fill a second pot (that is slightly larger than the fondue pot) with water and place it on the stove and bring to a low simmer.
3. Place the fondue pot with chocolate and milk or cream over a low flame on the fondue pot's heat source. If no milk or cream is added to the chocolate, place the fondue pot on the simmering water, instead of the direct low flame of the fondue pot's heat source. Stir until melted. After the chocolate is melted, the pot can be placed on the fondue pot's heat source, at a low heat.
Tips Warnings
Do not attempt to melt chocolate in the microwave.
