Preparation:
Cut the bread into small pieces.
Split the piece of garlic in two and rub the inside of the caquelon with the them.
Put the cheese and the wine in the caquelon and cook them on the cook stove.
Constantly stir the mixture. Add kirsch and maizena, but keep stirring.
Leave them on the stove for a while, but make sure it does not overheat.
The mixture tends to spill out of the pot if it gets too hot !
