Who's right? Bought a new wedge of Parmesan cheese; used it last night; went to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap before putting in the fridge. DH said it's fine in a tupperware container (no plastic wrap). I thought the idea was to keep the cheese from being exposed to air. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I always heard that cheese should be allowed to breath a little. Ideal for parmesan is to wrap first in in parchment and then in a ziplock bag. Airtight container would work too. [ Reply | More

Agree. I find that the cheese will take on odor and taste of the plastic wrap and even the Tupperware (think dishwasher soap scent). Maybe I’m just super sensitive. [ Reply | More

OP here. That's the thing -- when it dries out, it has zero flavor. [ Reply | More

men hate being told they are wrong. let him do it his way, in a couple of weeks,let him reach for the dried out cheese and realize he was wrong. Then, he'll change. its annoying, but do it. [ Reply | More
