Cheese is most often used as an ingredient to add

Flavor Color Texture

______ has the greatest influence on classification of cheese.

Milk selection

the basic steps common to all cheeses include:

Milk selection Coagulation Curd treatment Curing Ripening

Ways of classifying cheese

The most common ways of classifying cheeses are by the

Processing method Milk source (cow, sheep, goat, etc.) Moisture content

ways to serving cheeses

Semi-hard and hard: room temperature Unripened cheeses: chilled

Some of the functional of cheese properties include:

Shredability Meltability Oiling off Blistering Browning Strechability

Maillard reaction

The browning of cheeses during heating, a result of the ______

proteolysis

breakdown of proteins called caseins into peptides (small protein fragments) and amino acids. This is performed by enzymes found in the milk and by microorganisms from the starter and found naturally in milk.

Cheese making starts with the coagulation of the ______ in milk.

casein protein

The type of method used determines many of the ____ of the resulting cheese.

characteristics

The number and size of the blisters that develop will depend on the ______: large blisters tend to form when using _________, whereas numerous small blisters may be a sign that the cheese has not been aged very long.

cheese's age, excessively aged cheese

Cheese is a preserved food made from _____ or solid ______

To expose cheese to controlled temperature and humidity during aging

curing

Triangular knife (very hard cheeses) Skeleton knife or steel string (soft cheeses) All-purpose cheese knife

cutting cheese

The amount of _____ found in cheese is determined by the type of milk from which it is made (whole, reduced, low or non-fat)

fat

The higher the ___ & ___ contents of a cheese are the greater is its ____

fat and moisture; meltability

include cottage cheese, cream cheese, ricotta, farmer's, pot, and feta cheeses.

fresh

Serving cheese room temperature yields ______

full flavor

There are three main steps in the ripening of cheese.

glycolysis, lipolysis, proteolysis,

Based on their moisture content, how would Swiss and cheddar cheeses be classified?

hard

Some can even be frozen

hard cheeses only

Cheese should be stored in the refrigerator drawer, because this is where ____ and _____ are the highest.

humidity;temperature

pressing

is another way to create a solid mass out of the curd, and the last step before ripening.

The chemical composition of a cheese determines

its functional properties dictates how it will be used in food preparation.

glycolysis

lactose is metabolized to form acetic and propionic acid, carbon dioxide, esters, and alcohols; this metabolism is initiated by the bacterial starter and other microbials present in milk

Problems may result when using ______ cheeses because they separate more easily when exposed to _____ and their higher ______ content makes them toughen as they are heated.

lower-fat, high heat, protein

lipolysis

the breakdown of fat molecules to free fatty acids, which are then further broken down to ketones, lactones, and esters by enzymes found in milk or added during manufacturing

curd treatment: salting

Salt controls the growth of bacteria and further dehydrates the curd.

Mold should be removed

one inch beyond moldy area; soft cheeses discarded

more salt is absorbed at a lower ___ and _____ temperature

pH; higher

The enzyme most commonly used to coagulate milk in cheese making is ______

rennin

Which of the following is the most common enzyme used to coagulate milk in cheese production?

rennin

The chemical and physical changes that occur during the curing period; 4 weeks to 2 years

ripening

Examples are Roquefort, blue, Muenster...

semi-hard

Cheeses like Brie, Camembert, and many Hispanic cheeses.

soft

Freezing is not recommended for _______

soft, high-water-content cheeses

______ (food for livestock, processed foods)

Dry whey

hard

Parmesan and Romano are classified among the___ cheeses.

hardest

The curd texture produced by acid has a ______

has a soft and spongy texture

One drawback to using higher-fat cheeses in cooking is their greater tendency to ______

oil off,

About _____ of the calcium in milk is lost in the whey during this process.

one fourth to one half

The curd texture produced by acid is influenced by ____ becoming more ______ as the acidity _____

pH ; solid and compact; increases

Two factors influencing salting are_______

pH and temperature

Which type of cheese is produced by a process of blending varieties of natural cheese, with or without heat, and mixing them with other ingredients?

process

A cheese made from blending one or more varieties of cheese, with or without heat, and mixing it with other ingredients

processed cheese

Too much browning occurs if there is an excess of _____ or _____ in the cheese.

sugars, amino acids, or lactose

coagulates with enzymes

sweet whey

The ____ content of a cheese determines whether it can be successfully frozen.

water

The ____ content of cheese determines whether or not if can be frozen.

water

whey cheeses

dry salting and brine salting

Th e two major types of salting are ______

hard

The moisture content ranges from 30 to 40%.

USDA-defined U.S. Grades ______

Making cheese

Drain whey Remove moisture from curd

The yield from 10 pounds of milk is approximately ____ of cheese and ____ of whey.

What is the name for the process by which cheese is exposed to controlled temperatures and humidity during aging?

curing

The two most important principles when preparing foods with cheese are:

Select the best cheese. Keep temperatures low and heating times short.

knitting

Some cheeses are knitted; that is, the curd is united or melted into a solid mass through the use of heat.

Cheese must be stored properly to prevent ______

deterioration

Fermentation produced ______

chymosin Aspergillus niger Kluyveromyces marxianus var. lactis

curd treatment: heating

This encourages the evaporation of whey, which allows lactic acid to build up to create a fi rmer, more elastic texture

Graded cheeses are evaluated based on their:

very hard

Water content of approximately 30% and are aged the longest

soft

Water content ranges from 50 to 75% and are aged for just a short time.

Cheese is usually produced by _____ the milk with either an enzyme or acid.

coagulating (clotting)

low-fat cheeses

_____ are not always good candidates for use in cooking.

acids

Process cheeses, which contain ______ and ______, can be heated without the fat separating, blend more smoothly, and melt more easily than do unprocessed cheeses.
