This creamy fondue is a typical dish from Piemontese cuisine
Cut the cheese into thin slices, place them in a high and narrow bowl, and cover with milk
Let the cheese soak in the milk for some hours
Beat the egg yolks, add the cheese and milk (which was previously soaked), and cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon
The cheese will initially come together in a sticky mass, then it will dissolve with the milk and egg yolks to form a thick and creamy sauce
A good fondue should not be too sticky
Taste before adding salt, as the cheese is already slightly salty
You can add pepper if you like
Fry bread slices in a very hot skillet greased with butter or margarine
Arrange the fried bread slices on serving plates and pour the warm fondue over them.
