    Weird, I actually prefer hard cheese over mozzarella. It has more inherent taste and browns faster.

    Ever tried lactase pills, do those work for you?

      I dont like the way hard cheeses melt as much. I love varieties like parm or asiago as an accent sprinkled over the main cheese, but imo nothing compares to a 4:1 mozz/gruyere mixture for pizza.

      Sadly lactase doesnt seem to do anything for me. I’ve been lactose intolerant for a few years now and tried a lot of the things people do to mitigate it; ultimately the only thing that worked for me was significantly changing my diet. Silver lining, I make really good fried rice now

        I wonder if you didn’t randomly gain a milk protein allergy instead of lactose intolerance. Generally if someone’s lactose intolerant, just taking some lactase should help (as long as the dose is taken as directed & is high enough) since it breaks down the lactose to simpler sugars.

        Lactase wouldn’t do squat for someone with a milk protein allergy, though.
