I just wish I know what it was. > > What makes it different than other cheeses? The essential thing about doing things with cheeses like parmesan/pecorino etc. is that they must be used as fresh as possible. I NEVER buy pre-grated stuff. Who knows how long it's been there before appearing on the supermarket shelves! I also subscribe to It.hobby.cucina, and there was a thread about pesto alla Genovese. The thread was about botulism and cheese in ready prepared pesto. To cut a long story short, they advised freezing the basil, which has its own season, and then using portions of it to make pesto with the opther fresh-bought ingredients. They reckoned that there would be a risk of botulism with pesto made all in one go and kept for a period of time. Now, I'm not a chemist, but I do see red lights when I read things like that. That's why I make any dish with cheese from freshly bought produce, and do it fresh, and what's not used gets thrown away. You should ponder on this, and be careful. Tanti saluti (all the best) di |

And hear - when the jars (are > going to) explode... Botulism has no smell. We recently had a case where convenience-store nacho cheese killed 1 and hospitalized 9: <http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2017/05/23/529589579/nacho-cheese-sauce-tainted-with-botulism-kills-california-man> With pesto, it's probably not the cheese. It's the garlic and basil. Cindy Hamilton |

I have a mild intolerance to dairy but have had great results if I take a couple Dairy-eze pills before eating things heavy with milk or cream. I also only use lactose free milk.

I didnt mean for that to seem rude or
demeaning. Just found it odd that youd Be eating Alfredo as somebody whos allergic to or intolerant to dairy in The first place. If it helps at all, I can tell you that Im Not lactose intolerant at all, and Alfredo Sauce in any significant portion makes Me stomach sick as a dog too. |

I believe it's a problem if you're on some sort of "device" rather than a PC. When I reply, the previous post is automatically quoted. My question is: Are all google posters too stupid to see that the post they're replying to is more than five years old? Cindy Hamilton |
