The fondue that is called "moitié-moitié" or "half and half," referring to the proportions of cheese, is made with Emmenthal and Gruyère, but in other regions they use Emmenthal, Gruyère and Vacherin fribourgeois. This last cheese should be added at the very end. The combination of cheeses is very important: you need both a fat cheese and a drier, salty cheese in order for the mixture to bind well. 1, record 3, English, - half%27n%20half%20fondue

La fondue, qu'on appelle moitié-moitié, pour faire référence aux proportions, se fait avec de l'emmenthal et du gruyère mais dans d’autres régions, on utilise de l'emmenthal, du gruyère. et du vacherin fribourgeois. Ce dernier fromage doit être ajouté à la toute fin de la préparation.
