| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | In a 4-quart heavy saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over moderately low heat, then add the canned tomatoes and minced garlic, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid from the tomatoes is evaporated, typically about 5 minutes. ๐ |
| 2 | While the tomatoes and garlic are cooking, stir together the dry white wine and cornstarch in a small bowl until well combined. Once mixed, pour this mixture into the saucepan with the tomatoes and simmer gently, stirring continuously for about 1 minute to allow the flavors to meld together. ๐ท |
| 3 | After simmering, discard the garlic cloves from the saucepan, as their essence has now infused into the mixture. |
| 4 | Begin adding the cheddar cheese to the saucepan, gradually incorporating it by handfuls into the tomato mixture. Stir continuously until each handful of cheese is completely melted, creating a smooth and creamy fondue consistency. ๐ง |
| 5 | Once all the cheddar cheese has been melted and the fondue is smooth, transfer it to a fondue pot set over a flame to keep it warm and gooey. ๐ฏ๏ธ |
