Fondue Pots - What to Consider Before Buying a Fondue PotWhat type of fondue do you plan to make? Fondue pots are generally designed for a specific type of fondue. Ceramic fondue pots are primarily used for cheese and chocolate fondues, while stainless steel or enameled steel fondue pots are used for oil and broth fondues (used for cooking meats, seafood, and vegetables). Many manufacturers now make combination fondue sets that come with a ceramic pot and a stainless steel pot. Look for a fondue pot that comes with a set of fondue forks that are different colors as it helps the guest keep track of which food bit is theirs.

Tips on Using a Fondue Pot
- Use the right fondue pot. Ceramic fondue pots are best for cheese or chocolate and metal fondue pots are best for broth, oil, wine, or beer fondues.
- Use only flavorful liquids, such as broth, beer, or wine. Never use water.
- Cook your fondue recipe on the stove and then serve in the fondue pot.
- Never let your fondue recipe boil in the pot.
- Keep cheese and dessert fondues at a low temperature (about 120 degrees). Oil fondues should be kept at about 375 degrees.
