Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 0.75 cup whole milk
  • 3 egg yolks, lightly beaten
  • 0.5 pound fontina cheese, diced small
  • shaved fresh truffle or truffle oil, optional

Instructions

In top of a double boiler set over simmering water, melt butter.

In a bowl, whisk together the milk and the yolks; stir in the cheese.

Whisking constantly, slowly add egg and cheese mixture into butter. Continue whisking until mixture has melted and thickened slightly, 8 to 10 minutes.

Transfer fonduta to a warmed bowl and garnish with shaved truffle or truffle oil, if desired. Serve with bread, potatoes or asparagus, for dipping.

Alternatively, arrange asparagus on a platter, drizzle with fonduta, and garnish with shaved truffle or truffle oil.
