Do You Use Parmigiano "Bones" (rinds)?

[CraigC]

I like to add these to sauces and soups. It one of those "What is that flavor?" ingredients, IMO.

Yes. Same here, soups and sauces.

Absolutely.I can't bear to throw them away.

I heard of that. Does it melt down when cooked?

Not really, but it gets very soft and rubbery. It just imparts a nice little tasting note that's a pleasant surprise.

So it enhances the flavor of whatever you use it for, but you can't eat it.

Yes you can! And it's very good.

When I have it, I also add Parmigiano rinds in the broth (both veg and meat)
