Parmesan Recipe Tips & Cooking Inspiration

Parmesan Cheese Recipes FAQs

Can you freeze Parmesan?

Yes, you can freeze Parmesan. In fact, freezing is a great way to cut down on your food waste. Hard cheeses like Parmesan freeze well because they have a low moisture content. Bear in mind that the texture and overall quality will degrade and you won’t have an easy time slicing them once frozen. However, you might not need to freeze your Parmesan at all, as an unopened block of parmesan cheese can last up to six months in the fridge.

What does Parmesan taste like?

​Parmesan cheese boasts a rich, nutty and bold flavour with a slightly salty undertone, making it a versatile and not overwhelming addition to many dishes. Its granular texture and taste profile elevate all manner of dishes, from pasta dishes and vegetables to soups and salads.

What does Parmesan go with?

Parmesan’s tangy flavour perfectly accompanies the likes of aubergine and chicken, for instance, as well as being a vital ingredient in the very finest roast potatoes. Grated Parmesan also makes a perfect finishing touch to pasta dishes, where you want to take the flavour up a notch without adding an overwhelming flavour.

Is Parmesan cheese vegetarian?

Parmesan cheese is not considered vegetarian due to how the cheese is made. The making of parm requires an ingredient called rennet, which is crucial to the Parmesan production process. Rennet is made using animal products, which is the reason traditional Parmesan cheese cannot be considered vegetarian.

How long does Parmesan cheese last in the fridge?

Parmesan cheese lasts different lengths of time depending on its form and storage. An unopened block can stay fresh for up to 9 months in the fridge, while an opened block lasts about 4 to 6 weeks if properly wrapped. Grated Parmesan should be refrigerated and used within 1 to 2 months. To extend its freshness, store Parmesan in an airtight container or wrap it in parchment paper before refrigerating.
