Something you can make with shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Origin
Cheddar cheese originated in the village of Cheddar in Somerset, England. It is believed to have been produced there since the 12th century. Cheddar cheese is made from cow's milk and undergoes a process called cheddaring, where the curds are stacked and pressed to remove whey. The cheese is then aged, usually for several months, to develop its unique sharp and tangy flavor. Today, cheddar cheese is produced in various regions around the world, including the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
