Swissmar Peak 10 Piece Fondue Set, Copper For Meat, Cheese and Chocolate

Swissmar offers metallic fondue sets which are ideal for an oil/broth fondue. Suited to cooking at high temperatures, the oil/broth is often pre-heated directly in the fondue pot on the stovetop and then carefully transferred to the rechaud base. With an oil/broth fondue it is important to use the splatter guard to prevent hot oil splatters. Sometime after World War II, Swiss cooks began cooking meat in hot oil as an alternative to their beloved cheese fondue - a kind of French-fried meat supper. It became known as fondue Bourguignon because the French-speaking Swiss are descended from the Burgundians. Tip: The cooking oil should be heated in the metal fondue pot on top of the kitchen stove. The optimum temperature for frying the meat is 375ºF, although it can be cooked properly down to 360ºF. A deep-frying thermometer is an essential tool for telling when the oil has reached the frying temperature.
