 I have seen the light! After reading so much about it on these forums, I finally decided to buy some good cheese from the grocery store. I purchased the smallest block I could find of Parmigiano Reggiano for about $8 and went home and made a lasagna with it. Needless to say, I don't think I will be going back to the cheap stuff anytime soon. And for that $8 I got quite a bit of cheese, once I grated it down; I was surprised at how fluffy it is!!!       |

| Wooohooo! Now not only that, that try using a veggie peeler and just shaving the thinnest curls off of the cheese that you can and eat it with a gorgeous spring salad with a light vinaigrette or simply with crusty italian bread and a gorgeous cab and maybe an olive or two and a slice of aged dried salami! MMMMMMM! Maybe a grape tomato dipped in extra virgin olive oil and balsamic with a sprinkle of sea salt... |

 Devilnuts, we'll take full credit for exposing you to the idea, but you deserve credit for taking the step. We won't, however, take blame for changes in your food budget! In the years since I joined Chef Talk I went from a pretty competent home cook to one with much more confidence in my instincts and a much broader repertoire of methods, ingredients and dishes to choose from. My husband has also put in 10 pounds, but I won't take the blame for that.

| Next time, get a little wedge of Grana Padano. It's terrific on pasta, but also try it with a little prosciutto and figs. Yum!
