can you shred softer cheese like mozzarella?

If you can cut it with the dull back of a knife, then yes. Because these cutters are as dull. But most likely the shreds will just stick back together.

softer cheese like mozzarella... depends if it is sold in a hard block or soft ball. If it is bought in a block, just get it good and cold and yes, you can shred it with some coming out in slices.

Probably could, I have never done cheese with this disc. I have always used my grater disc for doing my grated cheese. Worth a try though. You can't go wrong with any of the Cuisinart discs.

I haven't been able to shred cheese, but it will chop it very fine. I use a mandolin slicer with a cheese shredder attachment. I did not receive a snap on cheese shredder with mine.

Softer cheese is fine, I had no problem. You just might have more cleanup on the shredding drum. The opening to shred the cheese is about a 2x2 square, it can be any size long. It just depends on how strong you are at holding the cheese in the opening.

I haven't tried it on soft cheese, but I don't think it would work very well because the opening is fairly small. I think it would make a mushy mess out of soft cheese, but it does a stellar job on the harder cheeses!

Sorry I haven't tried this - sounds like you have an interesting recipe. I think the shred blade would come pretty close.

I use the drum with the smaller holes because it shreds the cheese finer for over pasta but you can actually use either. Enjoy

sorry don't know, never tried to shred cheese. Handy little food processor though.

I shred cheese and it works great. I put the block cheese in the freezer for about 10 minutes and it shreds easier. You can save a little money by doing this rather than buying the pre-shredded packages.

I would say no. It tends to smash softer cheese, and even the hard stuff it crumbles instead of grating. I should have sent this back. As I am sure I stated in my review, it grates these cheese and spits it out in a long rope and because it grates it so fine, that 'rope' gums together and has to be separated by hand. pretty much useless.

Sorry, never tried it. The serrated blade should help with softer cheeses. Something like Velveeta would need to be very cold.

I haven't tried it, but that type of cheese is very soft, so I think it might not work well. If you try putting it in the freezer first, that may work.

I have never grate cheese in a food processor. However (and this is only a guess), if the cheese is hard, then I would try a fast pulse to see if that works. As long as it's hard cheese, it sounds as if quick pulses should work. I wouldn't try soft cheeses, however. I would guess that soft cheeses would be gummy and stick to the blades.

I'm sorry, but I don't know. I have used it for vegetables like potatoes making them nice and thin but haven't used it for cheese. I do think it would work especially if the cheese is hard.

Sorry never tried it on the soft cheese. Does ok on medium cheese not to hard.

I really do not know. I purchased this to make fresh mozzarella cheese (buffalo cheese). Sorry :-(
