Steps

1
The simplest method: grate cheese directly over a dish like a Caesar salad.
2
Take a parmesan rind, scrape off any printed markings, cut into pieces, arrange on a plate, and microwave for about two minutes to create surprisingly crispy parmesan crackers.
3
Blend Gruyère cheese with hot cream until smooth, pour into a whipped cream canister, charge once, shake well, and dispense as a cheesy topping over foods like french fries.
4
Heat a griddle or nonstick pan over medium heat, spread cheese on it, place a tortilla on top while the cheese melts, cook until the edges turn crispy and caramelized, then flip to form a tortilla with a crispy cheese skirt.
5
Top with your desired fillings, such as braised meat, onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice, to finish a crispy, cheesy taco.
