Dip into Something Different: A Collection of Fondue Recipes with $25 in Melting Pot Restaurant coupons
E**H
I love the melting pot, but not the price. So, tried this!
The book was In very good shape despite being a tad musty. I love it. If you're expecting only fondue recipes then you need to find a fondue only cookbook. This is a Melting Pot restaurant cookbook which means it has recipes for sauces, cooking styles for meat and recipes, salad recipes,and of course plenty of cheese and chocolate fondue recipes.I almost purchased it for $35 plus tax at the restaurant last time I was in (and we take out or eat in almost every time we eat out), but they were out. I'm glad they were because I got a much better deal here.Love it!

If you love the Melting Pot...
If you love the food at the Melting Pot restaurant as much as we do, this will be a great purchase. Our restaurant closed because of COVID and is now permanently closed. It is a great loss, but now that I have this book, I can recreate the great meals we enjoyed there.

The table of contents doesn't list specific recipes but here's what some of the inside looks like. I'll try to update my review with some of the recipe names later because that's what I would've liked to have seen before posting. Also worth noting it's an old printing so the coupons are very expired

If it wasn't for the coupons in the back I'd never have to pay for fondue at the melting pot again.
The cocktail recipes are worth it alone

Awesome cook book and super easy recipes!!
Our holiday tradition is cheese fondue for Christmas Eve. It's just something i started doing after i got married to give the holidays our own kick. This year was a little different as my fondue pot (which is a pain in the butt) with all the recipes are at our family cabin three hours away and in the snow. Since getting it on short notice wasn't going to happen i had to make some choices. Give up on our tradition after 13 years or get a new pot and buy a cookbook. Surprise, surprise, to my merry amazement, here it is!! Look no further and holy cow. Get ready to have some fun!!I did three different recipes for our fondue night, which was a little scary not to give them a test run first but i just went for it and were they ever so good. I did the traditional Swiss cheese fondue and i got the Emmantaler (sp) cheese just at Safeway.....which was one of the cheeses recommended for that recipe. It was probably the BEST fondue i've made in 13 years!! I tried the Greek Goddess dip since we were having some raw veggies as well as veggies and meat grilled on a racklette. Omitted the white onions cause i don't really eat onions and figured i'd put in the entire green onion instead of just the tops it calls for. Was still a little onion-y for me but it was still good!! We also did some chicken bites so i tried the Cilantro Lime marinade for that. SO GOOD!! Everything added some zest and really spiced up our dinner which I had never done before. It was seriously amazing and my family loved it!!

Many Melting Pot recipes
I'm not sure if I got a newer version than some (the one I received was 2018) but it was all recipes. Now, there are no recipes like "Pepper Steak Fondue" where it tells you to get xx lb of flank steak, cube it, marinate it in xxx for xxx hours, then cook in hot oil at xxxF for 3 minutes, then let cool before dipping it in either sauce x or sauce y....like a lot of other recipe books have.It's all recipes for their different cheese fondues, then the salads and dressings, the dips and marinades/rubs, the cooking liquids, and the chocolates. For example, their Green Goddess dip, the Original chocolate fondue, and the Mojo cooking broth, to name a few.One should be able to figure out the meat and veggie needed on one's own. If not, then maybe fondue at home is not for you.

Excellent! Some recipes missing.
The book itself is laid out beautifully and logically. The recipes are clear and easy to follow, and the book is as pretty as it is useful. Their step-by-step explanations of recipes are really nice when you aren't used to anything overly complicated and you don't necessarily know a lot of fancy kitchen terms. Anyone can fondue with this cookbook and be very prepared to do so! The ONLY reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because I was disappointed that not every item on the menu at TMP is in this book, and some of our favorites were left out. I think this may be because the book is older and they have added to the menu, but I'm not entirely certain since TMP wasn't on my radar until a year or so ago. I highly recommend this book, even so!Slight side note: to do the cheese and chocolate courses, you REALLY need to be sure you have a fondue pot with a double boiler! We have one, and it pays!

Best Fondue Book!!
LOVE this fondue cookbook!This book covers 3 types of fondue: cheese, meat, and dessert! It also allows you to have the full experience of a Melting Pot restaurant at home. There are recipes for dishes (like salads), as well as dipping sauces for the meat fondue.The quality of the book is great (hard cover, decent paperweight for the pages), and the layout is very user friendly. Throughout the book there are tips & tricks for making fondues, as well as a little history on them. All the recipes seem fairly easy and quick, and all ingredients should be easily found in your fridge & pantry or local grocery store.
