ABSTRACT:
A process for making cheese that can include soluble proteins, such as whey proteins, comprises the steps of renneting the feed stock, heating the renneted feed stock, then adding lactic cultures to the renneted and heat-treated feed stock, removing excess water to produce unfermented cheese and allowing fermentation to proceed to produce fermented cheese. Varied textures of the fermented cheese are achieved by adjusting the degree of the milk clotting enzyme (rennet) action on feed stock, the heat treatment to which the renneted feed stock is subjected, the amount of water removed and the de-watering process conditions. The fermented cheese can be texturized. This process is capable of producing cheese having solids contents from about 40 percent to above about seventy percent by weight. The resulting cheese can be used as natural cheese or as a natural cheese ingredient in the making of processed cheese.
