Reviews
This recipe is really only good to base your fondue on. I agree that it is not supposed to taste like chicken, so I highly recommend that you only put about 1/4 cup of the chicken stock (instead of broth) in the mixture. I also would tell you to add your favorite seasonings to the mix, as the base recipe is actually very bland. It really took very little effort to greatly improve this recipe, and I suggest you do what you like to make it your own, as it does prove to be a fantastic base, but only that.
I was so bummed about how this turned out. I thought the flavor was descent, but it was seperated from the very beginning and never came together. It’s so hard to dunk bread chunks in a lump of cheese. Won’t try this one again.
Easy and yummy
Cheese fondue is supposed to taste like cheese not chicken. It was a very unpleasant surprise. I don’t recommend this recipe.
This white wine fondue was very creamy and flavorful. It was not a five for me because the recipe as it is has a little to much flavor. However, I found by using just half the wine and the rest chicken broth that the flavor is perfect. Sandra Lee is my favorite. Thank you for all the great ideas!
Like all the others have said — it tasted like chicken soup. It was disgusting. I am not sure if this recipe would work without the soup, but I have since found a better recipe for cheese fondue anyway.
I didn’t like it. I agree that the chicken broth is overpowering. Could not detect the white wine at all.
We call it “Chicken Fondue”.
It was the worst fondue ever!
Yuck. What a terrible taste in fondue!
