A metal fondue pot that is intended for use with alcohol fuel provides a safe, even flame for enjoyable fondue cooking.
Cooking with a fondue pot is enjoyable and gives food a unique taste and style. A fuel fondue pot, which uses a denatured alcohol or gelled alcohol burner to provide a safe, even flame, is the easiest way to enjoy fondue. The evenness of the flame produces the best results with the least hassle, and the enclosed liquid fuel tank is far safer than gas canisters, or exposed flame sources such as canned fuel and candles.
Instructions
1. Remove the burner from the stand and open and remove the burner fuel tank cap. Pour two to three ounces of denatured alcohol or gelled fuel into the burner, and replace the cap.
2. Make sure the fuel tank cap is closed tightly. Thoroughly wipe away any spilled fuel before placing the burner in the stand.
3. Light the burner via the center hole once it is placed fully upright in the stand. Use a match only; do not use a lighter or any other device.
4. Adjust the flame as necessary. You are now ready to add oil, sauces or chocolate to the fondue pan according to your chosen recipe.
5. Brown or dip meat, fish, bread or fruit in the fondue pan once the contents are hot or melted. Once the food you are dipping is fully browned or covered with dip, it is ready to eat and enjoy.
6. Extinguish the flame with the burner cover when you have completed your fondue cooking session. Wash and rinse the pot and forks by hand. Allow the burner and stand to cool before wiping.
Tips Warnings
Convenient pre-filled gel fuel packages are available, and these can be inserted into some fondue burner tanks.
Not all fuel fondue pots can use gel fuel. If yours is marked liquid fuel only, then use either denatured alcohol or liquid fondue fuel.
Three ounces of fuel lasts about 90 minutes. For shorter fondue times, adjust amount accordingly.
Make sure there is no liquid or gelled fuel on the counter or other surface under the fondue burner. The heat of the burner can cause spilled fuel to ignite.
Do not add fuel to a hot fondue burner. Allow the burner to cool before refueling.
