How to Use Up Those Dried Cheese Scraps From Your Fridge
Cheese is hardier than you think — here's how to put even the driest cheese to good use.
Salsa Macha
This outside-the box salsa is made from a fragrant blend of toasted chiles, garlic, peanuts, and sesame seeds. Spoon it over Tuna-Avocado Ceviche, grilled fish, quesadillas, tacos, Mexican-style street corn, salad, pizza, or crusty bread.
Caramelized Five-Onion Dip
A mix of five different alliums—shallots, scallions, and sweet, yellow, and red onions—upgrades this classic caramelized onion dip with layers of flavor. Yellow and red onions give it bite, while Vidalia onion and shallots lend a pleasant sweetness. Taking the time to cook the onions low and slow concentrates their flavor, while adding scallions halfway through cooking keeps them just fresh enough to serve with chips, toasted bread, or vegetables like endive, steamed fingerling potatoes, and roasted Broccolini.
Dinner Hummus Is the Ultimate Weeknight Meal
Add some spiced chicken and cauliflower and you’ll never go back.
