Having trouble digesting fondue?
Normal, we can not say that it is a light dish!
Me, I was always bloated after eating a good fondue.
I ended up asking my cheese maker how to make a lighter and more digestible recipe.
And what he answered really surprised me!
Her tip for making a lighter fondue is to put some baking soda inside.
It may sound weird, but it's super effective for lightening up a fondue (and digesting it well). Watch:
For 2 people
- 300 g of cheese
- 150 ml dry white wine
- 1 teaspoon of lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 pinch of baking soda
- 1 teaspoon of nutmeg
- 1 pinch of pepper
1. Grate the cheese.
2. Pour the white wine into the fondue pot.
3. Add the cornstarch.
4. Heat the container over low heat on the gas stove and mix well.
5. Add the cheese little by little, mixing carefully.
6. Pour in the lemon juice while continuing to mix
7. Addthe baking soda and stir again.
8. Put the nutmeg and pepper.
9. Mix again to incorporate all the ingredients.
10. Place the container on the plugged-in fondue set.
There you go, your light fondue and digestible is now ready to be tasted :-)
Easy and fast, right?
It's perfectly creamy and has just the right amount of acidity.
And rest assured, baking soda leaves no unpleasant taste.
The flavors of your fondue are intact.
But the good news is that you will enjoy yourself without unpleasant side effects!
No more bloating, difficulty digesting and stomach ache after this good family recipe.
Well, that's no reason to eat twice as much...
But thanks to this grandmother's trick, your fondue is particularly smooth and creamy .
A real winter pleasure for the taste buds... and your stomach!
Now all you have to do is choose between the Savoyarde... or the Swiss!
- To make a real fondue, choose cheeses with at least 45% fat :Emmenthal, Beaufort, Comté or replace these cheeses with Swiss Gruyère...
- To add flavor, you can rub the fondue pot with a clove of garlic.
- For the accompaniment, choose dry bread . This is the time to use the stale bread. Otherwise buy the bread in advance and make it slightly stale. Or ask your baker if he has any leftover bread from the day before. For a lighter version, you can also add some vegetables or potatoes.
- If you want to make a dish without alcohol, replace the white wine with 150 ml of broth.
- For this use, take good baking soda food .
When heated, baking soda releases carbon dioxide. This allows the cheeses to be less compact.
In addition, bicarbonate has a basic pH which reduces the acidity of cheese and wine.
But the icing on the cake is thanks to the bicarbonate, the proteins begin to break down more quickly.
As a result, it makes the cheese easier to digest.
So no more heartburn and other digestive problems!
