Fondue dipping is a fun way to share good food with family and friends. It consists of fondue pots filled with cheese, chocolate or other dipping sauces. Guests dip morsals of food into the fondue pot using a fondue fork. Fondue forks are easy to use, but you need to be aware of the required etiquette when using one. Once you learn the etiquette, the rest is easy. Get ready to kick back with friends and have a great time at your fondue party.
Instructions
1. Pick up the fondue fork your host has provided for you. Keep track of your fork if there are more guests at the fondue pot. Some hosts provide colored-tipped fondue forks, making it easier for guests to keep track of their forks.
2. Dip your fondue fork into the pot and allow it to rest there until your bite of food is cooked, from two to five minutes. Fondue pots are used with meat, vegetables, bread and fruit, so certain foods may take longer to heat up than others.
3. Remove your fondue fork from the pot and place it on your plate. Pick up the normal table fork your host has provided, and use it to remove your food from the fondue fork.
4. Allow your food to cool before picking it up with your regular fork and eating it. The host may spoon dipping sauces onto your plate at the beginning of the party. Feel free to dip your regular fork into any of the sauces.
5. Keep your fondue fork at the side of the fondue pot, directly in front of you. This will help prevent mix-ups with the other guests.
