- 1 cup hard apple cider or 1 cup hard pear cider
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
- 4 cups shredded gruyere cheese
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch, plus
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch

- fresh ground black pepper
- crusty bread, cubes
- granny smith apple, slices
- bosc pear, slices

Method
- Combine the cider and vinegar in a nonreactive medium saucepan.
- Stirring to dissipate the bubbles, bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Decrease heat to med-low; the liquid should barely simmer.
- Toss the Gruyere with the cornstarch in a large bowl to coat the cheese.
- A handful at a time, whisk the cheese into the simmering cider mixture, whisking until the first batch is melted before adding more.
- When all the cheese has been added, return the heat to medium and heat just until the fondue bubbles a few times; do not overcook.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the Calvados; season with pepper.
- Transfer to a fondue pot set on its trivet over the flame.
- Arrange the bread, apples, and sausage for dipping on a platter.
- Serve the fondue hot with fondue forks and the platter of dipping ingredients.
