Swissmar - Bienne 11 PC Stainless Steel Fondue Set - F66917

Fondue is a common dish shared at the table heated over a small burner. Forks are used to dip bits of food (most often bread or staple foods such as meats, vegetables or fruit) into either delectable melted cheese, oil, broth or chocolate (for dessert). This simple traditional meal allows guests to prepare their own feast and enjoy conversation and fun at the same time. While cheese fondue is the most widely known, meat and chocolate fondue are just as traditional, making a fun evening with friends and family unique and memorable. Our Swissmar Fondue collection allows for a diverse and exceptional culinary experience to enjoy and share with company.

Sometime after World War II, Swiss cooks began cooking meat in hot oil as an alternative to their beloved cheese fondue - a kind of French-fried meat supper. It became known as fondue Bourguignonne because the French-speaking Swiss are descended from the Burgundians.This set includes: an 18/8 stainless steel mirror-finish pot (0.8mm thick, 6"/15.24 cm diameter, 2 L / 2.11 qt capacity), stainless steel spatter guard (for meat fondue), 6 stainless steel numbered forks, 18/8 stainless steel burner, stainless steel rechaud and base plate.
