How to make it
- Preparation:
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring frequently, for 1 to 2 minutes, without allowing it to color. Whisk in the champagne and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, whisking until thickened and smooth. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Gradually stir in the Brie, letting each addition melt before adding more. Stir in the crab and cayenne. Season with a dash of salt if needed.
- Transfer to a fondue pot, preferably ceramic or enameled cast iron, and sprinkle the chives over the top. Regulate the heat under the pot, if possible, so that the cheese fondue remains warm, not hot.
