How to Store Parmigiano Reggiano?

Wrap the cheese in wax paper, parchment paper, or cheese paper

Place the wrapped cheese in a loose plastic bag or airtight container with some airflow

Store it in the refrigerator, ideally in the vegetable drawer or cheese drawer

Keep it away from strong-smelling foods

Rewrap it with fresh paper after each use

Check regularly for moisture or mold

If mold appears, cut off the affected area plus a small margin around it

For long-term storage, freeze only if necessary, preferably grated or in small portions

Let refrigerated cheese come to room temperature before serving
