Swiss Fondue

Cultural Context

Originating in the Alpine regions of Switzerland, fondue was a practical way to use up leftover cheese and bread during the harsh winters. Traditionally enjoyed in social settings, it's a symbol of Swiss hospitality and togetherness. Today, fondue has gained global popularity, with variations that include different cheeses and dippers.
