Some prefer fish-broth, melted cheese or even chocolate sauce. I'm talking about fondue, the communal dish which exists in many variations from savoury to sweet and has had a steadily growing fan base for decades. Sharing food with friends!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>This time around, I'm focusing specifically on the meat fondue, our ultimate family dinner on Christmas Eve. At least in my family, no one wants to see anything else on the table that day. Making fondue is a sizzling piece of work, whether you prepare the chunks of meat in oil or boiling soup. In my experience, soup works better and is gentler to the meat. Whether the preference is for beef, veal, pork, chicken or turkey, soup works just as fast as oil but the cooking process is a bit more relaxed. Chicken has to be cooked all the way through, the other pieces of fillet are better enjoyed medium or even medium rare. Soup also gives you a bit more control and seasons the meat at the same time as cooking it. And at the end of the evening, what was initially a relatively neutral vegetable broth will have transformed into a strong, beefy bouillon to be used for the following day's brunch.<br \/>\nIt doesn't matter which way you go, a fondue dish isn't perfect until you have your dips. Only the finest fondue sauces make for a sublime fondue experience. I would like to introduce my five favourites below - from spicy to mild.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-13862\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/fondue_fleisch_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Fondue_Fleisch_GEX_12_2016_c_Julia_Stix\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/fondue_fleisch_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/fondue_fleisch_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/fondue_fleisch_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-2000x1333.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/fondue_fleisch_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-1500x1000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/fondue_fleisch_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-1000x667.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/fondue_fleisch_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-500x333.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ideal for beef, veal or fish<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Sauce tartare<\/p>\n<p>Herb sauce with sour cream<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Spicy partner to a pork fillet<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Garlic sauce<\/p>\n<p>Savoury paprika and chilli sauce<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Delicious with chicken and turkey\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Curry and banana dip<\/p>\n<p>Lingonberry sauce<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-13860\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/meeresfruechte_hot_pot-_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Meeresfruechte_Hot_Pot-_GEX_12_2016_c_Julia_Stix\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/meeresfruechte_hot_pot-_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/meeresfruechte_hot_pot-_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/meeresfruechte_hot_pot-_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-2000x1333.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/meeresfruechte_hot_pot-_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-1500x1000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/meeresfruechte_hot_pot-_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-1000x667.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/meeresfruechte_hot_pot-_gex_12_2016_c_julia_stix-500x333.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Hot Pot<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Not so in love with meat or fish fondue? You want something simple but full of flavours, preferably something like a stew? Vegetarian or vegan maybe? Whatever your preference, you can't go wrong with a Hot Pot. This sneaky little number is the ideal alternative to the classic fondue, offering something for everyone. Hot Pots are ideal for winter, when eating warming meals in a cozy atmosphere is what we all want the most. The Hot Pot is always the right choice, whether it's vegetarian or vegan, whether you're using fish or meat. In this dish, any ingredients you choose will unfold their full flavour spectrum. Fillets of meat, fish or even seafood can be added spontaneously. The basis of a Hot Pot is: vegetables, herbs and rice noodles. Hot Pots with an Asian flavouring can be supplemented with the finest cuts of chicken, beef, fish and seafood.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you all have Merry Christmas and a quiet, festive holiday!<br \/>\nAll the best,<\/p>\n<p>Eva<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Photos (c) Julia Stix for MAXIMA Gourmet Extra, food styling and recipe creation by Eva Fischer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some swear by oil, others don&#8217;t use anything but soup.
