Parmesan resurrection

Found a goodly wedge of parmiganno in the fridge. Sans wrapping, glassy and hard as..impossible to cut or grate.
With nothing to lose I soaked it in milk for 24 hours..et voila, softened up and useable.

A trick worth adding to the just-in-case file, Barb! I'm glad it worked for you.

I'd have never thought of that.
