They're your taste buds!
May I recommend Locatelli Romano cheese? It has a thin, brown paper rind.
It has much more flavor than any parmesan can possibly have. You will use less.
Hand grate before use. Pre grated / shredded cheese loses flavor. You will use more.
I'm not in the cheese or food industry etc. Kira
Pecorino Romano (Imported from Italy) and Parmigiano Reggiano (not the parmesan junk) are two different animals, pun intended. Romano is made from sheeps milk and Parmigiano is made from cow's milk. They are completely different tasting. Furthermore, Romano is saltier and only used in it's grated format where Parm can also be served on a cheese board.
I enjoy both and grate them at home; Including cheddar and mozz.
