    Ingredients

    • 1 clove garlic, peeled and halved
    • 1 cup stout or other dark beer
    • 1/2 pound emmentaler or other swiss cheese, shredded (about 3 cups)
    • 1/2 pound gruyere, shredded (about 3 cups)
    • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
    • salt and pepper
    • Freshly grated nutmeg
    • Broccoli florets
    • Thick sliced of kielbasa or another smoked sausage

    Preparation

    Rub the inside of a heavy pot or dutch oven with the cut side of the garlic. Add the sout and bring to a simmer over medium heat.

    In a bowl, toss the cheeses with the cornstarch. Working in 3 batches, gradually stir the cheese mixture into the stout until melted. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is gently bubbling, about 2 minutes; season.

    Serve immediately from the dutch oven or transfer to a fondue pot. Top with grated nutmeg to taste. Serve with broccoli florets and thick slices of kielbasa or another smoked sausage.
