Can I freeze it?

Question

I found a good deal on cheese but, I don't want to buy a whole bunch and have it go bad on us. So If I bought it can I freeze it and if so for how long?

Answer 1

The texture does get somewhat ruined when freezing. I usually freeze leftover cheese, shredding it first, and then I use it in casseroles, etc. so that it melts anyway, and so then the texture change doesn't matter.

Answer 2

Most cheeses don't freeze well. Test freeze a bit overnight and then thaw it out and see what it's like

Answer 3

if it is any hard cheese you can grate it and freeze it for up to two month. If it is soft cheese I would not advice to freeze it ,because it breaks in little chunks and looses it's flavor.

Answer 4

I have found it keeps better in the freezer if it is vacuum sealed and then frozen. I have kept cheese frozen for over a year and it was not soggy nor did it taste funny.

Answer 5

Yes, you can freeze it, and for up to 3 months.

Answer 6

for 3-5 days depends what kind of cheese is.

Answer 7

i dont think thats a good idea b/c if you want to eat it later on you have to wait for it to melt and that just makes the cheese soggy and gross like

Answer 8

I freeze chees and have never had a problem, but usually use it within a couple of months.

Answer 9

i keep it in there for over a year, its frozen..nothing can get to it.

it doesnt make the cheese soggy.
(i'm talking about the shredded cheese in the bag)

Answer 10

I have tried to freeze cheese but when you thaw it, it always crumbles.
