ABSTRACT:
A cheese cooking apparatus and method that includes a cylindrical cheese cooking tank containing temperature-controlled hot water. Stacked upper and lower cylindrical drums having radially extending paddles forming vertically upper and lower cavities are rotated in indexed steps. Sliced cheese curd product is delivered to an upper cavity from where the curd product is passed to a lower cavity after a rotational distance. After another distance, the partially cooked curd product is passed to a delivery station where stretching means for receiving the partially cooked curd product works the product and simultaneously moves it to a discharge station free of the hot water as fibrous cheese product. A cheese curd cutting system delivers sliced curd product to the working tank. Alternatively, a cheese curd feeding system delivers sliced curd product to the cooking tank.
