Parmesan PointersWhen a recipe calls for shredded Parmesan cheese, use the cheese found in bags in the grocery store dairy section. Shredded Parmesan is often used in salads or soups where the shreds make a pretty garnish. If grated Parmesan is called for, use the finely grated cheese sold in containers with shaker/pourer tops. This type works well in lasagna and casseroles. (You can substitute either shredded or grated Parmesan in equal proportions in your favorite recipes.) If you decide to buy a chunk of Parmesan cheese and grate your own, be sure to use the finest section on your grating tool. You can also use a blender or food processor. Simply cut the cheese into 1-inch cubes and process 1 cup of cubes at a time on high until finely grated.

Very Italian. I've been to Rom a year ago and had the knots daily. Finally I found an english recipe. Very simple

I have made this recipe several times and have gotten raves each time. Someone said they would be really good with spaghetti.

These are wonderful and so simple! I've made them with the parmesan coating and also brushed them with melted butter hot out of the oven.

This was a very easy and fun recipe. My 9 year old daughter made them.

Very good...I think I would double the oil next time though because the consistency was not good for tossing

Absolutely wonderful and so simple! I made exactly as directed only divided in dough round in half instead of thirds because I was in a hurry. Well definitely make these again.

Been making these for years! I use lowfat biscuits, take each biscuit and make a long snake out of it, tie in a knot, bake, poke holes in it with fork then pour home made garlic butter over and top with parmesan cheese. They are awesome.

My family loves these. We usually add more garlic and herbs. We put the mixture in a covered plastic bowl and shake up the Knots.
