Jennifer132 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 So I went to Walmart last night and bought a small bag of grated Parmesan cheese. It accidentally got left in the bag overnight. So total about 14 hours until I discovered it. The house was 68 degrees. Can I still use it? I am planning on cooking it when/if I use it.

justasque Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 (edited) No hesitation whatsoever. Use it.(And psst - freshly grated Parmesan or Asiago is so, so much better! It takes only seconds to grate - use a food processor if you need a lot.) Edited November 23, 2016 by justasque 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluegoat Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Yes. Actually, you really aren't supposed to keep it in the fridge, that is a bad environment for cheese. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Yes. Actually, you really aren't supposed to keep it in the fridge, that is a bad environment for cheese. Wow- really? Is this for all hard cheeses? I've always kept them in the deli drawer and never thought twice about it. The things I learn here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The things I learn here. No. Unless you have a special cave to store cheese, it should be stored in the fridge, wrapped in paper rather than plastic, in the drawer. You can keep certain cheeses (like camembert, brie, epoisses...) out under a cheese dome, and you should pull cheese out a while before serving it so it comes to a good temperature, but cheese should be refrigerated if you plan to keep it.
