freeze-dried cheddar cheese - Kaylee - 08-27-2018 We've got milk, eggs, bread, so we need cheese, right?!? Here's a #2 can: Opened: NON-rehydrated FD cheese & crackers: It definitely does have a different texture, since most of the water has been removed. I tried it "as is" in a quiche (store bought crust), when I ran out of "normal" cheese: Here's the final cheese & onion quiche: The cooking process inherently rehydrated it, and it was difficult to tell which part was "normal" and which was from freeze-dried. I have not yet tried "normally" rehydrating the cheddar before eating directly, but have tried it with mozzarella, and the moz tasted just like normal moz - quite a pleasant surprise. I put the above opened cheddar can (with top tightly on) into storage a year ago, and haven't had a chance to dig it out & re-test it. I will soon, and will report back. As with all of these "high speed" kewl foods, I recommend it only if you find it at a good price, and/or "need" your cheese. P.S. This thread posted "live" from America's Cheese capital... Wisconsin!
