What to do with edam cheese all year round.

By: Aimee Morales

What to do with those great balls of cheese? First things first, here's how to store queso de bola, according to StillTasty:

•    Always keep cheese refrigerated. Keep

•    If opened, wrap queso de bola in wax or parchment paper, then cover with plastic wrap.

•    To freeze: Cut the cheese in portions (about 200 grams each), wrap tightly in aluminum foil or heavy duty freezer bags, making sure it's airtight.

•    Freezing cheese may alter your cheese's quality, causing it to be crumbly. Use thawed cheese to cooked dishes like dips, sauces, and soups.

•   When freezing, make sure the temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit.

Chip in!
You don't need Parmesan cheese when you have queso de bola. They're both sharp in flavor, and can be crisped to add flavor and texture to salads, like in this Apple and Quezo de Bola Salad. If you like this, you'll also like Herbed Queso be Bola Crisps.

Spread the love!
Once you've tasted this Homemade Cheese Pimiento, you won't go back to the bottled kind anymore. In a rush? Use store-bought mayo instead.

B.Y.O.B. (Bring Your Own Bread)
There may be bread sold everywhere but baking your own may be the most rewarding thing you'll ever do (next to being a mother, of course!). Here's a starter recipe that requires just the basics plus queso de bola: Cheese Bread. And the aroma of breadbaking? Mmm.

Crispy and cheesy!
Instead of Parmesan cheese, this crispy Parmesan Chicken uses good ol' queso de bola. The sharp cheese flavors complement the Honey Mustard Dip, too! Pack it for tomorrow's baon.
