Can you shred cheese with a chefs envy

That depends on the cheese. A firm cheese that will just slice right through is much easier than a soft cheese. A soft cheese kind of doesn't offer resistance so it breaks more than shreds. Colder is better - either way.

I haven't tried because I believe it would be very hard (due to cheese's density) and messy (while vegetable juice is easy to just rinse off, not so much with cheese's fat smashed all over the the tool).

if i shred a few i use the shredder that goes on top. if i shred a lot like for a carrot salad i use kitchen aid food processor. i hope this helped.

Haven't tried that one, but I would bet you can. Cooked alot of stuff on a similar model when in college, just never did grilled cheese!

I have not tried cheese (yet) - but I'm sure you will Not have a problem. It is a nice machine. Frozen meat was a breeze, as was Lonza.

I love these knives. They can cut cheddar cheese but not as thin as a cheese slicer with wire. I do hand wash them and keep them separate from other knives because I don't want to risk chipping them. They make slicing and dicing a breeze!

Sure you can but there are not separate controls so I think the cheese would get too hot. Or the oil might be too cool. We haven't tried using oil yet. Maybe someone else has?

After reading the factory manual you should be able to assemble and use the salad shooter. We use ours to grate cheese, slice olives, carrots, etc. for salad.WE use the shredder blade mostly.

It comes with 2 blades one for grating the other for slices. I use mine for shredding cabbage and carrots for slaw. I grate cheddar cheese right into the bowl that I'm using. I use the slicer with parmigiana cheese. I use this tool so often that when we travel in our rv I take it with me. Wonderful to make the slaw as you "shoot" it right into the serving bowl to mix.

No one has asked for that specific cheese, but I think if you used the slicer on on side of the triangle rather than the top or bottom, that it would work well

I love this gadget for cheese, chocolate, butter; and it works great with hard cheeses if you want to remove a rind. You can do thicker slices of any cheese-even feta or cubes but not for thin slices.

I haven't tried that. I use my Cuisinart mixer shredder attachment for that. I wouldn't think the Breville would give you the result of nice shredded cheese. It is a blender afterall. And excellent for any and all blending.

You should oil it, it will last longer. The manual says cooking oil is OK. Youtube has videos on how to oil shredders.

Yes, I just used this to grate parmesean reggio cheese and it busted the plastic part that holds up the grating blade. The entire unit is ruined as I am afraid to use it to chop or shred as the plastic housing is now fractured and broken off.

I actually haven't tried that so I can't say. I would guess that a drier cheese would do fine but others may just clump up ???

I tried to slice cheese a couple of ways ... Neither worked so unless someone else knows a trick I'm thinking the answer is no. That is not to say that I don't like my Mansoline ... I love it!

It's wide enough to shred a large block if cheese held sideways. It might work with potatoes. However a box shredder would be better. This is best for grating a small amount over a short period of time.

You would have to cut whatever you are trying to dice without going all the way through and then use the Chef's Envy to dice it. For example, if you are trying to dice an onion, make parallel cuts in the onion but don't cut all the way through so that it stays together. Then place it on the Chef's Envy blade with the cuts going in the opposite direction so that it will dice when you run it through. Does that make any sense?
