How to Shred & Freeze Cheese- Avoid Wood Pulp- It's Healthier

There are 4 reasons to shred your own cheese. It definitely tastes better, but it is also healthier. Powdered cellulose is a filler and anti-caking agent that is put in shredded cheese. Did you know that cellulose is made from wood pulp or cotton. While the FDA says it is safe to ingest, do you really want to when you can shred your own cheese and avoid this.

Make sure the cheese is made with ORGANIC RENNER too, Tillmook is one of the few that does.

[@sandysteinbrook]

Tillmook is so good! That is probably why. Thank you for sharing this information. I am always learning from the comments.

[@GeorgiaPeach87]

@@sandysteinbrook yw!! 🥰

[@jameslockhart8250]

Tillamook started putting soy in thier products

[@cariemorgangraff4829]

I’ve heard that shredded cheese also has a “ food grade” antibiotic.

[@jimwetzel1635]

Ooooooh-kay, then! I never would have thought of this. Since my wife has some physical issues, I'm now the "chief cook and bottlewasher," and I do the shopping, too. No more shredded cheese for me. Thanks, Sandy!

[@sandysteinbrook]

You'll find it so simple to shred yourself! Thanks for watching!

[@karendixon7123]

You got a great price for close to 10 cups of cheese! Great deal!!

[@sandysteinbrook]

I know! That is the only kind of block cheese that Sam's Club carries, so I buy the sharp cheddar there.

[@Terri_Stauffer]

I shred my own cheese with food processor and then freeze. Never used anything to keep it from sticking. I have to try that next time.

[@sandysteinbrook]

Does it stick if you dont put anything on it? I have always put just a few tsp of something on it to keep from sticking. Someone suggested powdered milk, which I am going to try.

[@Terri_Stauffer]

@@sandysteinbrook Parmesan cheese doesn’t stick but mozzarella and cheddar does stick.

[@sldjme]

You make this look so easy Sandy! Can you tell me how long it takes to defrost once you take the bag out of the freezer? Thanks so much! Great video! Janel in NJ

[@sandysteinbrook]

Hello, Janel! You can lay it out not the counter at room temperature and it will be defrosted enough to easily use within an hour. If I need to hurry the process, I stick it in the microwave for about 25 seconds so it is pliable to use.

[@Georgiaonmymind862]

I’m a new subscriber. Thanks for the good ideas!

[@CassieDee]

I started doing this a while back. Well worth the effort!

[@sandysteinbrook]

Agree! It is such a simple thing to do and doesn't take much time.

[@miracles-f2o]

Pre- prepared Grated cheese as well call it in England has starch added to it to stop it sticking together. It's also ridiculously expensive because it's been grated. Check the price per Kg when buying. It's likely twice or three times the cost of a block. Cheese factories buy blocks of cheese from cheese makers and they literally slice, dice and grate it and package it and make a tonne of money. Just do it yourself ❤

[@sandysteinbrook]

Agree! It is so easy to do ourselves.

[@pizzagal197]

Never thought of doing this! Thanks

[@sandysteinbrook]

You're welcome!

[@lgeo1125]

Great idea, thank you! I usually buy and shred cheese, as needed. Your way will save me time AND money 🎉

Thank you for this video. I like the cheese grader.

[@sandysteinbrook]

Love that thing. I use it for vegetables all the time too. It comes with a mandolin attachment.

[@bap8195]

Nice tip🙂

[@sandysteinbrook]

Thank you!

[@traceyalexander2162]

I love this idea! Keep these videos coming! 😊

[@sandysteinbrook]

Thank you!

[@debbieb6054]

Thanks for doing this video. I am going to start doing this:

[@hahahase3816]

Could you use power milk? To keep it from sticking

[@sandysteinbrook]

That’s a GREAT idea! I’ve never thought of that. Yes, any powdery substance will work. I’m going to start doing this instead.

[@hahahase3816]

Okay then I’ll will start doing this!!

[@Gfthce3426]

Wow ! That block of cheese would be over $20 up here in our Beautiful Canada. 😂 and you think your politicians are greeding . 😂

[@sandysteinbrook]

Yes, that block of cheese I found at Sam’s Club is cheaper than any store around us! They always have good deals, so I stock up

[@debclair822]

So true. Cheese is expensive in Canada. Same with butter and chicken.

[@sandysteinbrook]

@@debclair822, I bet your diary and chicken are much higher quality than ours in America. We have so many added chemicals that aren't allowed in other countries.

[@debclair822]

@@sandysteinbrook Haha, maybe!

[@shirleystrong2122]

Thanks sandy, love this idea! ❤

[@sandysteinbrook]

Thanks for letting me know! I am glad it was helpful

[@MJN0922]

Wait. What? Now you add carbs by adding GMO flour? Sad... Imma skip that step and also plan on using the food processor to get there faster. Oh, and I'm pretty sure I'll keep the empty labeled expensive ziploc bags in the freezer for the next 2 pound brick from Sam's. Thanks for the idea.😀

[@sandysteinbrook]

I usually use fresh milled flour, but most people do not have access to that. But it sounds like you have a great plan for yourself!

[@kefirheals7383]

You used unbleached flour in your video. Can I just use regular flour? 1:47

[@Ginabina76]

I was always told it was potato starch that kept pre shredded from sticking.

[@sandysteinbrook]

Yes, potato starch is another one of the things that can be used as an additive and bulking agent. So is powdered cellulose and Natamyacin. I just choose to control what is being added to our food. That way I get better tasting cheese and I get more cheese by doing it myself.

Hi，Sandy，How can we keep touch with you to have a collaboration?

[@donnagilman3451]

Great video! Thank you!! 🍃🏠🍂

[@sandysteinbrook]

Thank you and ...you're welcome!

[@aprilinalabama9074]

It does taste better ❤

[@sandysteinbrook]

It really does!

[@aprilinalabama9074]

What can you add so it doesn't stick? ... Thanks Sandy 😊

[@sandysteinbrook]

Hello! You can add some flour, or someone suggested powdered milk. It just needs to be a very light amount and the cheese won't stick together. It does not need to be powdered heavily.

[@cherylemccormick1724]

How much flour, like a tablespoon or two?
