Tip

Freeze Cheese Before Shredding

Before shredding soft cheeses like mozzarella, I put the cheese in the freezer for about 30 minutes. I’ve found this makes it easier to shred, and the cheese doesn’t stick to the grater. —Cheryl J., Beltsville, Maryland

Light-Bodied White Wine

Enjoy this recipe with a light-bodied white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.

i would refer to the 1 cup of cheese rather than the 8 oz. part since the former seems more accurate. you are right. 8 oz. of cheese is 2 cups. so it should read 4 oz. instead.

I'm wondering about the 1 cup (8 oz.)shredded Monterey Jack cheese - isn't 8 oz. 2 cups?
