Product Description
Product Description
Fondues are great for apres-ski, for apres-shopping, for apres-a-hard-day-at-the-office, apres-anything really. They're no trouble to make, sinfully delicious and fun to eat. They can be as simple or sophisticated as you choose. In this beautifully illustrated book you will find fondue recipes for every occasion: informal suppers for family and friends, children's parties, dinner parties and many more. As well as traditional cheese fondues, there are ideas for using meat and fish, vegetables and fruit, fresh herbs and exotic spices. With helpful hints on planning and cooking techniques, this book will help you get the most from this remarkably easy style of cooking. This is the only guide to fondue cookery you'll ever need. It's perfect for anyone who loves cooking for friends and absolutely indispensable for anyone who has a fondue set and is puzzled to know what to do with it.

From the back cover:-
'Fondues can be as simple or as sophisticated as you choose. In this beautifully illustrated book you will find fondue recipes for every occasion, informal suppers for family and friends, children's parties, special occasion dinner parties and many more.
As well as traditional cheese fondues, here are ideas for using meat and fish, vegetables and fruit, fresh herbs and exotic spices. With helpful hints on planning and cooking techniques, this book will help you to get the most from this remarkably easy style of cooking.'
From the foreword:-
'Like so many good ideas, the original Le Creuset Fondue Set evolved from one person`s enthusiasm for something new. Little did he know that some thirty years on so many people from all over the world would enjoy the companionship, variety and wealth of flavours that fondue cookery can bring.....
Today, Le Creuset Fondue Sets are sold all over the world and a variety of designs and colours are available. Some are dual-purpose, making them suitable for cheese, meat, fish, vegetables and dessert fondues, whilst others are of a specialist nature.....
...Whatever the occasion, a fondue makes a grand centrepiece and talking point. It can be informal, sophisticated, very sociable and fun, but most importantly, as the recipes in this book illustrate, simplicity itself to prepare.
Bon Appetit! Le Creuset'
Each recipe is well laid out with the title, number of servings, the list of ingredients and a clear, numbered method.
Suggestions are given for 'dipping', if applicable.
A taste of the recipes within:-
* Fondue Savoyarde
* Ploughman's Fondue
* Crunchy Bacon and Eggs Fondue
* Quick Tomato Fondue
* Fish and Potato Nuggets
* Tropical Gammon with Pineapple
* Shepherd's Fondue with Meatballs
* Swiss Cheese Fondue
* Fondue Bourguignonne
* Christmas Fruit Fondue
* Bangers `N' Beans Fondue
* Mallow Fudge Fondue
* Harvest Vegetable Fondue
* Mushrooms in White Wine
* Crispy Cheese Prawns
* Swordfish Teriyaki
* Herby Lamb Fondue
* Bitter Chocolate and Orange Fondue (the cover picture)
* Jamaican Calypso Fondue
* Mississippi Chocolate Fondue
* Lemon Foam Fondue
* Thousand Island Dip
* Garlic Dip
* Mild Curry Sauce
* Orange Sauce
* Eskimo Bananas
Interspersed with stunning photography, but, sadly, limited to just a few of the recipes..........which is why, for me, this book drops a star.
