I'm dying here.

Of bliss; I'm dying of bliss. Fresh-baked rye bread and gruyere/emmenthaler Swiss fondue. I can now authoritatively state that dying of bliss is not a bad way to go.

(No, I didn't make fondue yet. This was the very last bit of the previous batch of fondue. I'm not at all fond of my cheese grater right now.)

I am lazy when it comes to fondue. I grate all of the cheese in the food processor. It also saves my fingers.

I like to throw a drop of Kirschwasser (cherry brandy) into my Swiss fondue also. Try it!

I'm thinking I should probably get a food processor. Modern ones are pretty easy to clean, right? Most parts dishwasher-safe?

I've had fondue with Kirschwasser, but never added any myself. I don't think I've ever owned any Kirschwasser. :)

Super easy. I throw everything in the dishwasher (ok, not the electrical base but everything else). I have a small Braun one, not one of the giganto models. It's perfect for this kind of thing. If you're lucky, you'll find someone getting rid of one on FreeCycle.

Awesome! Yeah, I should keep an eye on freecycle. Good idea.
