      I am also from Switzerland and I am quite a specialist of fondue, you need at least one gummy cheese and a hard cheese (Gruyère + Vacherin) or (Conté + beaufort + emmental, for the French version) or Raclette cheese, but on ALL cases you need to cook it in al lot more white wine (100ml per person) ! anyway, I would join Guga for any dish he prepares, even that fondue (as long as there are steaks !) ;) anyway, it's the first time that I see somebody eating cheese fondue as a side dish ! :P

    As a South African I can truly say that Aromat is the best spice ever... I am 45 years old and grew up on the stuff lol. You can almost sprinkle it on anything, But I love it on eggs, corn on the cob sometimes just as a spice on rice or even on a tomato sandwich or just on the tomato alone lol.

      He had basically no manners and always walked with his crack popping out of his pants.
      Every time we would serve him food he would shout "AROMAT!!!" and one of us would rush to give him the aromat so he could sprinkle on his food.
      Aromat is still something I sprinkle on every single food I eat but every time I read or here the word I am reminded of the days of slaving for that dude.

They have a whole range of seasoning and spices related to the countries that they have manufacturing plants in so you might even get seasoning and spices of KNORR only in some specific regions of the world and not in other places. But to answer the debate of the origin of AROMAT specifically it is of SWISS heritage and here is Quote from KNORR "Aromat is a food seasoning, invented in Switzerland by Walter Obrist for Knorr Thayngen, the swiss branch of the German food company Knorr, in 1952.

I actually prefered Vegeta (still exists) to Aromat as Vegeta is more about dried vegetables (carrot, parsley, onion, parsnip, celery, lovage and garlic) and is more coarse while Aromat is too salty.

    Swiss Fondue can not be made with just any cheese ! We swiss take pride in the quality of our cheeses which give really unique flavors and texture to this dish. The classic « moitié - moitié » fondue is half Gruyere (swiss AOP Gruyère has nothing to do with french gruyere, and it’s a hard cheese) and half Vacherin (from the Fribourg canton). I do mine with one garlic clove, a fruity white wine from valais called « Fendant » and a little extra Kirsch (a cherry spirit)

      I'm a Yank and before reading your post I had no idea that we pronounce "Knorr" differently than the manufacturer intended. I think it's a misunderstanding due to the K in KN always being silent in American English as opposed to an overt marketing blunder like the one that's the reason why we pronounce "Adidas" wrong.
      And yes other Americans who read this, we do pronounce the brand Adidas wrong and it's not our fault. The U.S. marketing company Adidas first hired to promote their brand over here pronounced it the way it looks to an American - _'uh-DEE-duss'_ - in the ads they produced instead of the correct way - _'ah-dee-dass'_ - and by the time anyone noticed it was too late to fix it. 🤣🤣
      In the other direction a lot of Europeans say Nike like it rhymes with the name Mike instead of its proper pronounciation _'nye-kee'_ for some reason.

    Thats Swiss Cheese Fondue, the regular Fondue has Broth in it and you dip Meat into it, thats why your pot has the lid so you can rest the skewers.
    Swizz Cheese Fondue doesnt need the lid since you just dunk it in an pull it out again. The Cheese isnt usually that stringy when its in there, it coats the bread easily, but doesnt form strings.

    @BakersTuts Před rokem +13

    Since you mentioned MSG, here is a video idea for you. I recently learned that snacks that use MSG sometimes also contain *Disodium Inosinate and Disodium Guanylate (aka DSI/DSG or I+G)* to enhance the effect of MSG by 20x-30x stronger (for example, Doritos, Pringles, KFC, Snyders Pretzel Pieces, Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing, etc).
    From what I’ve seen, some people buy a 50/50 premix of DSI and DSG (for example, by the brand Make It Meaty) and then make a custom mix of 97g MSG and 3g DSI/DSG to make an “enhanced MSG mix”.
    I was thinking the experiment could be this:
    1. Steak + Salt Pepper Garlic (control)
    2. Steak + SPG + MSG
    3. Steak + SPG + MSG + DSI/DSG
    Then maybe you could do a mini test with maybe another meat like chicken or maybe a potato based side dish or something, so we can see how it works with and without the MSG+DSI/DSG.
    I can even see the video title already “Food scientists say THIS makes MSG BETTER!”
    Anyways, I hope you give it a shot!

    Swiss pro-tipp from a swiss guy if you want an original fondue:
    - garlic
    - 400g gruyere cheese
    - 400g vacherin cheese
    - 3dl white wine
    - 3 teaspoon of cornstark
    - 3 teaspoon of „kirsch“ or another fruit-based liquer
    Rub the pan (originally we have special pottered „caquelons“ but any pan will do it) with garlic. Grate the cheese directly into the cold pan. Mix the wine with cornstarch, pour it in, and bring to a gentle boil while stirring continuously over low heat. Add the kirsch, season with pepper and additional garlic to taste.
    We love to eat that with bread (originally) or cooked potatoes manly in wintertime.

    Nice!
    Been using Aromat over here in Norway since I was a little kid in the 80's. I think all of Norway has had Aromat in their kitchen since the early 60's, so it's a very common salty spice over here. It's really good on potatoes and other foods as well, but sparingly.
    Just like the other cousin that is very similar which I think is even better, and that is something called "Gastromat" which was developed by two ladies from France and again Switzerland, they started making it here in Norway in 66. I find it to have a bit more onion taste and perhaps a slightl cellery taste, which goes really well with so many things, it also contains the magic of all food powders... MSG.
    I think if you mix herbs with MSG, and again... sparingly, shouldn't eat too much of it, you can get some really nice variations that you can put your personal touch to and just test it out and see the ratios and mix your own spice combos to save for later which you can perfect over time.
    I make my own beef jerky here at home, so spice and marinades have been experimented with success many times, I highly recommend it!
    And I like my jerky hot and spicy, I've tried carolina reapers which was a bit of an overkill, but I'd do it again cuz they ended up very tasty, but I tend to rather steal some thai bird chili's from my Laotian wife when she's not looking, it's got the perfect heat for my tastebuds.
    Mortar and pestle is still king, I use that over my electric stuff, much more control... and way more tedious!
