My favorite food guy, Alton Brown, says that natural (as opposed to processed) cheeses should be loosely wrapped in wax paper (because cheese is alive and has to breathe), held together with a rubber band, and placed in the refrigerator.
I recently purchased a pricey block of natural sharp cheddar from our local farmer's market and it was yummy!! I followed AB's advice and in a few days, I had a dried out, rock hard piece of very expensive garbage!
So, what IS the best way to store natural cheese?
