The history of chocolate fondue dates back to the 1960s when it gained popularity in the United States and Europe. This delectable dessert originated in Switzerland, where it was traditionally made with Swiss chocolate and served in elegant restaurants like the iconic Château Gütsch in Lucerne. The addition of sea salt to the rich, melted chocolate creates a perfect balance of sweet and salty flavors, elevating the fondue experience. Today, renowned chefs like Jacques Torres and Jean-Georges Vongerichten have put their own spin on this classic treat, incorporating high-quality chocolate and artisanal sea salt for a truly indulgent experience. For the best version of this dish, seek out a high-quality dark chocolate and a premium sea salt to achieve the perfect sweet and salty combination.
