Freshly grated hard cheeses incorporate better into sauces than most pre-grated cheeses will. Pre-grated cheese usually contain some form of silicone or silicate which is used as an anti caking ingredient. Because of this pre-grated cheeses will not suspend or dissolve into sauces and tend to fall to the bottom of the sauce.

Uses:  Grated for seasoning in soups, or vegetables, spaghetti, ravioli, breads, popcorn; used extensively in pizza and lasagne
