Parmesan rinds in soup and such is very traditional. My daughter the Food Maven (studying Culinary Arts Management at a local technical college) tells me they just bake the rind and scoop it up, or sometimes spread it on crusty bread. Sounds like a good way to use retained heat in a WFO after a bread bake

I hacked everything into useable pieces -- the Parmesan into hunks and the Peccorino into 1/6ths, then vaccum sealed it. I am trying refrigeration this time through, guessing it will take only a few months to work our way through it.

It tastes better than it looks! I think good Parmesan is like good olive oil. You can add just a little of it to just about anything, and it will taste better.

This looks perfect. I will give my address Kidding. If we all asked for some, you would have none.
