Why a Single Bodum Fondue Set can do both Cheese Fondues and Oil Based Fondues

Posting date: 11th November 2007 07:59

The Bodum Fongafale and Tabeo Fondue Sets break the usual rule that our fondue sets are designed only for Cheese/Dessert OR only for Bourguinonne or Chinoise (oil based or broth based fondues).

Why? Because in true Bodum style they have designed a Fondue Set which has 2 dishes! - very practical.

There is still a compromise in shape. The traditional cheese fondue is broad, the bourguinonne is taller and narrower - the Bodum Fondues are a compromise between the two.

To solve the problem that cheese or chocolate does not respond well to direct, strong heat and needs heat to be spread widely, Bodum have simply added a glass interior dish to their stainless steel fondues.

This means that to make a meat or broth based fondue you take out the glass dish, and to make a cheese or chocolate fondue you add water into the stainless steel dish, then the glass dish with the cheese or chocolate. A Fondue Bain Marie, in effect!
