Instructions

In a medium bowl, toss the shredded cheese with the flour and set aside.

Add the beer to a medium pot, and heat until it just starts to bubble (do not let it boil). Add one cup of the cheese, stirring in a figure-eight pattern until fully melted. Repeat with the remaining cups of cheese until it’s fully incorporated.

Stir in the mustard, garlic powder, and pepper. Transfer to a warm fondue pot, or keep it warm over very low heat until you’re ready to serve. If you’re eating it right away, you can also pour it into a ramekin or cast iron. Make sure to stir it frequently so it doesn’t congeal. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Temper Your Cheese Gradually 🧀
Add shredded white cheddar slowly while stirring constantly to prevent clumping and ensure a smooth, creamy emulsion that won't break or become grainy.
Use Fresh German Lager for Best Results 🍺
Choose a quality German Lager and avoid flat or warm beer—the carbonation and crisp flavor are essential for cutting through the richness and preventing a heavy fondue.
Bloom Your Spices in Garlic Powder 🌶️
Mix white pepper and garlic powder into a small amount of melted butter before adding cheese to intensify their flavors and prevent them from settling at the bottom.
Dust Cheese with Flour Strategically 🎯
Lightly coat your shredded white cheddar with all-purpose flour before adding it to the pot—this prevents melting clumping and helps create a silky, stable sauce.
Keep Fondue at Optimal Dipping Temperature 🔥
Maintain a gentle simmer (around 180-190°F) by using a fondue burner on low—too hot will break the cheese, while too cool will cause it to solidify on your dippers.
