The block form <strong>eliminates the need for a grater in the kitchen<\/strong> \u2014since it contains no additives commonly found in pre-grated cheese, it yields cleaner results in cheese sauces and gratin dishes. <\/p>\n<h2>What is the wholesale price?<\/h2>\n<p>The price shown on the page is for a single block.

This additive doesn\u2019t cause any problems when used in baking, but <strong>it disrupts the consistency when making sauces<\/strong>; the sauce becomes cloudy and sometimes has a gritty texture. <\/p>\n<p>For kitchens that prepare cheese sauce, gratin sauce, or lasagna b\u00e9chamel, buying the cheese in blocks and grating it just before serving makes a noticeable difference in quality.

Make sure to chill the block thoroughly in the refrigerator before grating it. <\/p>\n<p>In busy kitchens, it\u2019s practical to grate only as much as you need at the start of the day and keep it in a sealed container in the refrigerator; however, the grated vegetable will dry out if left sitting, so prepare no more than what you\u2019ll need for that shift.<\/p>\n<h2>How many pizzas does a 1 kg block make?<\/h2>\n<p>Based on 80\u2013120 g of cheese per 28\u201330 cm pizza, a 1 kg block yields roughly <strong>8\u201312 pizzas<\/strong>. Since 200\u2013300 g is used per pan for lasagna, the same block yields <strong>3\u20135 pans<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>To calculate the cost per serving, you can divide the current block price listed on the page by these numbers.<\/p>\n<h2>How should it be stored? Can it be frozen? <\/h2>\n<p>Store <strong> at +2 \/ +4 \u00b0C<\/strong>. Cover the cut surface with plastic wrap or a lidded container; otherwise, the exposed block will dry out and form a crust. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Freezable<\/strong> \u2014 because it has a low moisture content, its texture does not deteriorate significantly when thawed. Freeze it in portions and thaw it in the refrigerator. This is what sets it apart from mozzarella; mozzarella cannot be frozen.  <\/p>\n<h2>Wholesale orders and cold-chain delivery<\/h2>\n<p>We deliver to Istanbul\u2019s 39 districts 6 days a week, ensuring the cold chain is maintained for next-day delivery.
