Made by removing the moisture from cheese, dehydrated cheese has a longer shelf life than fresh cheese and can be easily stored at room temperature. It is also a great way to add a burst of flavor to your favorite dishes, as the dehydration process concentrates the cheese's natural flavors. From creamy sauces to crunchy snacks, dehydrated cheese can be used to create a variety of delicious and satisfying meals.

Categories     condiment

Time 10m

Yield 1/3 cup

Number Of Ingredients 2

1/2 cup grated Cheddar
1/4 teaspoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Spread the Cheddar in a thin, even layer on a microwave-safe plate lined with parchment. Microwave in 30-second intervals until the cheese has melted into a firm disc and the fat has rendered out, about 2 minutes.
  • Allow the cheese disc to cool slightly, then peel from the parchment and place on a paper towel to cool completely. It will crisp as it cools.
  • Once the cheese disc is completely cooled, break it into pieces. Pulse it in a food processor until finely and evenly ground, about 45 seconds. Add the cornstarch and pulse again just to incorporate.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. Use to flavor popcorn, vegetables, noodles or anything else you would add cheese to!
