First homemade fondue

Susana was here over the weekend, so we thought we would try out a real Swiss cheese fondue. The kitchen in the apartment is equipped with a real fondue kit, so we didn't think it would be a problem at all. We bought some fondue cheese, which we heated on the stove and then placed on the fondue heater on the dining table. As the picture shows we did have some issues getting the heat regulated properly, so the majority of the cheese ended up burning into a solid black crust at the bottom of the pot. We didn't get much cheese ourselves so we had to eat something else afterwards to get full. The whole apartment still stinks of burned cheese and that will probably last for another couple of days.

It may take a couple of attempts before we get it right, but we will get there. The most important thing is that we got started.
