Maybe you do, but for me, it's my first time know about chocolate Fondue. if you do heard about Chocolate Fondue, but how much do you know about it?? In order to know more about Chocolate Fondue, i do some researches on Chocolate Fondue. For those who do know what is the Chocolate Fondue and who do not know what is that about, here i'm gonna share some information of Chocolate Fondue with you, Here we go:
According to the information i got from Internet, Fondue is originated in Switzerland. Fondue refers to several Swiss communal dishes shared at the table in an earthenware pot ("caquelon") over a small burner ("rechaud"). The term "fondue" comes from the French "fondre" ("to melt"), referring to the fact that the contents of the pot are kept in a liquid state so that diners can use forks to dip into the sauce. The sauce is usually warmed either by a separate burner containing an alcohol-based fuel or simply by tealights. Though cheese fondues are the best known kind, there are several other possibilities for the contents of the pot and what is used for dipping.
Fondue is a food that became very popular in the United States in the 1970s. Fondue was said to be invented for the purpose of using up old cheese and dry bread. The Swiss also found fondue convenient because of the freezing winters and the scarce amount of fresh food. Having fondue helped the Swiss people have a meal when it was not possible to get fresh food.
More recently, since the 1960s, dessert fondue recipes have appeared, typically a caquelon of melted chocolate into which pieces of fruit of pastries are dipped. Other dessert fondues include coconut, honey, caramel, and marshmallow.
