📝 Preparation Steps
1
Toss cheeses and cornstarch together in a large bowl until evenly combined. Set aside.
2
Melt butter in a large sauté pan with sides over medium heat. Add the onions and all remaining “Onions” ingredients and cook, stirring often, until the onions are very soft and caramelized, about ⏱️ 20 minutes. Transfer onions to a bowl.

4
Reduce heat to barely a simmer and add cheese mixture, a small handful at a time, whisking after each addition until cheese is melted then adding another handful. The cheese might seem separated at first, but it will come together. Once cheese is melted and smooth, stir in caramelized onions. Taste and add additional balsamic (I add 1 more tablespoon), salt pepper/red pepper if desired.

Transfer to a to a warm fondue pot or small slow cooker. This fondue must be kept warm to stay melted and not too thick. If fondue become too thick, stir in additional beef broth a little at a time until it reaches desired consistency.
6
Serve with baguette slices and other dippers of choice.
