Rub the inside of a heavy saucepan with the garlic. Discard the garlic.

Add the wine and bring to a simmer over medium heat.

Add the cheese gradually to the simmering wine, stirring constantly in a zigzag pattern to prevent the cheese from forming a ball.

Cook until the cheese is melted and the mixture is creamy, stirring constantly.

Combine the cornstarch and water in a cup and mix well.

Stir in to the fondue. Cook for 5 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly.

Stir in the Kirsch. Pour into a fondue pot and set over a flame.

Makes 6-8 servings.
