It is OK, or even desirable, to grate Parmesan rinds?
I have a few rinds of Parmesan in my freezer and am wondering if it's OK, or even desirable to grate them? If not, is there any use I can make of them?

(Otherwise, simmer them in soups.)
There was a VCR tape with it that showed it turning blocks of wood into saw dust.
So, I thought "Hey, I'll turn these rinds into dust!!" ..It broke the blades.
You can take them and put them in a pot with cold water and make a "stock" with them. It isn't the most pleasant smelling but it makes a wonderful base to cook white beans in.
