A friend gave me a large log of provolone cheese and I don't want it to mold or spoil on meWhat is the best way to wrap it? Can I freeze it?
Properly wrapped, provolone will freeze very nicely If it is not cut, leave it in one chunk, wrap in plastic wrap very tightly (no air), and then in aluminum foilThaw in the fridge for a day or so before unwrappingFor daily use, it's a toss-upPlastic bags work well, but some experts will swear that they retain moisture and hasten moldOthers prefer butcher paper (the type that deli's use), but more experts will tell you that this allows your precious fromage to dry out! I guess it will depend on how fast you eat it! Best wishes!
