How to measure parmesan
- Shred or grate first, then spoon it into the cup loosely; don't pack it.
- A finer grate packs tighter and weighs more a cup, so a scale is the sure way.
- For the same result every time, weigh it: put the bowl on the scale, press tare, then add parmesan to the weight above.
Where the number comes from
