Anyone get anything good for the holidays? Cooking ingredients, equipment, books, etc?
I got some smoked maple syrup for my wife. I can def see using it in a cocktail.

I got a shredding attachment for my stand mixer and am so hyped. My jaw dropped as I watched perfectly shredded cheese just fall into the bowl. It was my favorite gift hands-down.
I thought about getting one of these. Is the increased difficulty in cleaning these worth the convenience of having lots of shredded cheese? I will sometimes shred up to a pound of cheese at a time and it sounds nice to not have to deal with doing it all manually.
I found it very easy to clean. My wrists and hands are weak, so shredding was a real chore for my yearly carrot cake as well. I got a stainless one that can go in the dishwasher if you have one. I don’t have a dishwasher but found the attachment no more difficult to clean than a regular box grater. It also come with a pipe brush to get any little nooks and crannies. Overall it depends how much you hate grating. I hated it and therefore love my gift.
I do grate a lot of stuff. I was concerned about the ease of cleaning but it sounds like cleaning it is far easier than the process of manually grating. Thanks for sharing.
There is a trick to cleaning all cheese covered things! Wash it in cold water. Not hot or warm, cold. If the water is just a little bit warm it essentially melts the cheese so all it does is smear and not clean.
I never knew these existed but now I want one!
