Servings: 8
Calories: 399kcal
Ingredients
- 3 cups dry white wine such as Chardonnay
- 1.5 lbs processed Swiss cheese shredded or finely diced
- 3 cloves garlic peeled and crushed
- 1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp. ground white pepper
- 1/2 tsp. nutmeg
Instructions
- Plug in a small slow cooker (such as a Crockette) and set it to the "warm" setting.
- Place the white wine, crushed garlic cloves, cayenne pepper, white pepper, and nutmeg in a saucepan over medium heat. After five minutes, turn the heat down to low and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the processed swiss cheese into the slow cooker and cover with the lid.
- After the wine has reduced for 10 minutes, pour it directly over the cheese in the crockpot (you may want to remove the crock from the heating element before doing this, so you don't spill liquid over the electric parts).
- Use a whisk to combine the cheese with the wine mixture. It will seem like it is not working at first, but it will soon come together. If after a few minutes there are still large chunks, turn the heat up to high and let it cook for 5-10 minutes. Whisk until smooth.
- Serve with pretzels, sourdough or rye bread, or sausage.
