For centuries, cheese fondue in Switzerland has been a staple item enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. Dating back to the 18th century, fondue began in Switzerland as a way to use aged cheeses and breads to feed families during the winter months when fresh foods weren&#8217;t plentiful. As the cheeses and breads became stale they became harder to eat, so locals found that if they heated the cheeses with wines, garlics and seasonings, they could dip the bread into it and make it easier to eat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, fondue is enjoyed using a communal pot (also known as a caquelon) over a portable and heated stove and eaten by dipping bread cubes using long-stemmed forks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-rosti\">4.
