If you don’t already have a cheese fondue set, you may want to consider getting a versatile fondue pot that can be used for chocolate fondue, cheese fondue and meat fondue in either hot oil or broth. I recommend the pot shown on the right. In addition to being versatile, it is also electrical.
I recommend the Artesia Electric Fondue Set as a multipurpose cheese fondue pot that would work great for this cheese fondue recipe and all other types of fondue.
