I agree with you there, I think grating it allows the heat to properly effect more of the cheese. Makes for some yum yum times. But takes too much effort grating it all the time. Sad

Pre-grated cheese has a tendancy to go moldy very quickly, sometimes even before it leaves the shop. I'd seriously consider grating your own.

I like porridge. This is how I make it:
1/2 a small cup of porridge (Scotts)
(in a large, microwavable bowl)
pour in a spoon or two of honey,
pour in 1/2 cup of boiling water and mix.
Pour in a cup of goat's milk and stir.
Sprinkle in some toasted coconut flakes,
Add some sultanas and stir.
Leave standing for 3-5 minutes.
Cook on High for 7 minutes, stirring twice.
Leave to stand for a minute.

I pour it in my prune bowl.
This adds an additional flavour and saves on the washing up! Razz
(Yeah, I even use the same spoon! I'm dangerous I am! Rolling Eyes )

ha, ya gotta get in there with Oat Cusine - came upwith that one after my flatmate, Stuart became obsessed with oats for a while too.

He would drink from a pint glass each morning half warm water half oats - saying it would slowly cook and expand in his stomach keeping him going at work - work being at Nairns oatcake factory.

Mocking his scots frugality...I said 'Hmmmm, Oat Cusine,' I didn't believe him. This is a man who told me, he was told, by his doctor that the rash on his upper thighs Confused was because "my pants were too tight?"

Anyway, listening radio 4 the next day, the truth was exposed, Shetland farmers back in the day would use Stuart's oat drinkin' techinque. Well, dog my cat!

I used to be a cheese wrapper - the cheese in 40 lb blocks would arrive covered in thick mould, especially the Canadian Cheddar which was always slimey as well. Each block was cut into small pieces and wrapped by me and for every 40 lb block I did over 8, I would get an extra half-a-crown Razz
I'm not a great lover of porridge though Confused
