"this was **extremely** bland. the recipe seems to have been missing something. the recipe was also completely off....2 c of wine is a ridiculous amout of liquid to use. i used 3/4 c wine and 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. i also added some worcestire sauce and ground mustard. the fondue was okay. it wasn't offensive but i definitely would not follow this recipe again."
