🧀Cheese please: Instead of buying pre-shredded mozzarella cheese, I like to find a block of grass-fed cheese, or something made locally ON SALE and shred or grate it myself…. or better yet enlist one of the kids for this duty.
Many pre-grated varieties are coated in strange additives (anti-caking & clumping garbage) that actually interfere with the natural texture and melting quality.
