Can You Freeze Ricotta Salata Cheese?

Ricotta Salata cheese can be frozen, but the texture and taste may be slightly altered upon thawing.

To freeze it, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or place it in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn. When ready to use it, thaw it slowly in the refrigerator to maintain its quality.

It is worth mentioning that freezing the cheese may result in a slightly crumbly texture, so consider this when deciding whether or not to do so.
