I think it was shredded using a grater - at least, that would be my first guess.<br /><br />The one time I bought it, though, I had trouble getting the outer skin off and cutting it.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01359861505983502652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7418067986039614257.post-52078768030339559892012-07-16T20:24:09.229-04:002012-07-16T20:24:09.229-04:00Thanks Michelle!
