Dipping bread with cheese (Slideshow version)

Dipping bread with cheese : Photo of step #26

Stage 14/14 :

Let everyone break off balls of bread themselves to dip into the melted cheese.

With hands simply reaching to one common plate in the centre of the table, this is what sharing food is all about.

Remarks

Ideally, the bread should be served warm with the melted cheese piping hot.

It is not essential to use Mont d'Or (even if this is a sublime cheese). Any similar soft-paste cheese, such as Camembert, will work well.

You might also like to use small dice of morteau sausage instead of the bacon.

And to drink?

A white wine that is on the dry side, such as a Jura Savagnin/Chardonnay, or maybe a Savoie wine.
