Ingredients

  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 8 ounces Gruyere cheese, cut into small cubes
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Directions

  • Rub the inside of a medium-size saucepan with the garlic and discard. Add the wine and lemon juice and heat for 1 minute over medium heat. Add the cheese cubes to the saucepan and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until the cheese melts completely, 2 to 3 minutes.
