|EM-uhn-tah-ler<\/span>|<\/p>\n

It may be the shortest day of the year, but we\u2019ve got just the thing to make you say goodbye to those winter blues: Fondue, in a classic preparation made with <\/span>Emmentaler<\/span><\/a>. Like most Swiss Alpine cheeses, Emmentaler is cooked into a variety of dishes, but this <\/span>classic fondue<\/span><\/a> is how we love it best. Now grab a crisp white win<\/span>e and get ready to get cozy as you dunk treats into gooey cheese in the light of the flame.<\/span><\/p>\n

Emmentaler, the star of this classic recipe, is a smooth, dense cheese that melts to a lovely velvet texture. A classic Swiss Alpine wheel, Emmentaler is protected by AOC regulations that require it to be produced within cooperative dairies using cultured raw, unfiltered cow\u2019s milk sourced from within a 30-kilometer radius. The best wheels of Emmentaler\u2014which, by the way, are some of the largest produced on a regular basis, with each wheel weighing approximately 225 pounds\u2014are made in the summer months when milk quality is at its peak from outdoor grazing. <\/span><\/p>\n

While the cheese can be sold after four months of aging, when the flavors are fruity and savory, with a slight bite on the finish, some affineurs mature their wheels for over a year for more complex flavor. Switzerland\u2019s Gourmino<\/a>, for example, ages Emmentaler, alongside Gruy\u00e8re, in former military bunkers carved into Swiss mountains. (We featured Gourmino\u2019s forts-turned-affinage-facilities in our recent Winter issue\u2014<\/span>check it out<\/span><\/a>!) <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
