FAQ

Can I measure Parmesan cheese, shredded by count instead of cups?
Count is unreliable when piece size varies. For accuracy, weigh a few pieces to find the average, then multiply.
Does substituting fresh Parmesan cheese, shredded for frozen change the gram reading?
Yes — frozen pieces carry ice crystals that add 5–10 % to the cup reading. Drain thoroughly after thaw before weighing to match fresh values.
