Ingredients:
4 tablespoons butter 2 large onions, finely chopped 1 bay leaf, fresh or dried 1 teaspoon dried thyme or poultry seasoning Salt and pepper 3 green apples 1/2 lemon, juiced 1 small, round loaf crusty pumpernickel bread, cut into bite-size cubes, 1 pound 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 2/3 cup dry white wine 2 cups half-and-half 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg A pinch or 2 of ground cloves 2 1/2 cups shredded sharp white Cheddar
Directions:
Melt the butter with the onions, bay leaf, thyme, salt and pepper over medium heat until the onions are soft and brown, about 20 minutes. Add the flour and cook for a minute. Add the white wine and cook another minute, then the half and half. When the mixture begins to bubble, season with nutmeg and cloves and salt and pepper. Add the cheddar cheese. Remove from heat and serve in a fondue pot with sliced apples and chunks of brown bread.
