Fondue for Two! It started with a road trip in Oxford county to pick up some farm fresh veggies and hand crafted cheeses. Some farms have green houses and controlled storage facilities to grow year round. I like the always just picked fresh zucchini, tomatoes, peppers onions cucumbers, okra, asparagus, potatoes, carrots broccoli cauliflower, nuts and grains are deluxe. thekitchenman shops at Victory Veg | Facebook.
After lunch we stopped into Gunn’s Hill Cheese which is a cheese emporium here in the dairy capitol of Canada. Fresh right from the area farm cattle. Fresh from the moo too you! Gunn’s Hill Artisan Cheese – News and Events at Gunn’s Hill Artisan Cheese (gunnshillcheese.ca)
Sampled some most excellent cheese and got a slice of aged Dark side of the Moo, Brie, fresh curds and a new creamy soft gouda. It was the perfect combination for a Valentines Fondue.
Crusty bread croutons, twice baked potato cubes, salt and pepper chicken wings, broc, asparagus, green pepper, turnip apple chunks and cherry tomatoes which pared perfectly with this cheese blend fondue.
The finish is a nice berry layer cake topped with a strawberry cream cheese frosting. Now if I play my cards right, I might have earned a few bonus points for later.
