Everyone will enjoy this nutty, full-flavoured cheese fondue. For a milder, sweeter taste, try the Cheddar and Emmenthal variation. For the best results, make the fondue in a fondue pot directly on the stove top then transfer it to the burner at the table.

- 1 cup unsweetened apple cider
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 12 oz 5-year-old Canadian Cheddar cheese, shredded

- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
- 1 tbsp cornstarch

Add Cheddar and Oka cheeses; stir with wooden spoon until melted, about 7 minutes.
Stir in mustard, cayenne and nutmeg. Dissolve cornstarch in remaining cider; whisk into fondue. Bring to simmer, stirring; simmer for 1 minute.
