Instructions
- Shred cheddar cheese and place in bowl or plastic freezer bag (such as Ziplock).
- Add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch per pound of cheese to the bowl or bag.
- Combine the cheese and cornstarch by stirring in the bowl or shaking in a sealed bag until cornstarch evenly covers all of the cheese shreds.
- Transfer cheese from the bowl to the bag, if it's not there already, and press air out of the bag and re-seal tightly. To reduce freezer burn you may double bag.
- Freeze cheese for up to 2 months without losing quality. Cheese that has been frozen is best for melting into soups, casseroles, or pastas.
