ought to YOU GRATE YOUR very own CHEESE?
using pre-grated cheese is extremely handy, however it includes some preservatives (together with potato starch) that help hold the grated cheese separated inside the bag. And while that is awesome for grabbing a quick pinch of shredded cheese, it's going to also motive the melted cheese to seem lumpy or harden faster than it normally need to.
So in case you’re a cheese lover like me and what the creamiest enjoy viable for your dip, I particularly propose freshly grating a block of cheese. I understand it’s more work, but the end result will more than make up for it.
