5th semester Morning

2. Fermentation:
is a metabolic process that consumes
sugar in the absence of oxygen.
The products are organic acids, gases,
or alcohol.
Fermentation in food processing :
is the process of
converting carbohydrates to alcohol
or organic acids using
microorganisms like yeasts or bacteria
under anaerobic conditions.

3. “A food made from the pressed curds of
milk, firm and elastic or soft and semi-liquid
in texture.’’
“A food consisting of the coagulated,
compressed, and usually ripened curd of milk
separated from the whey.”

4. Fermentation:
7000–6600 BCE
in Jiahu, China.
lactic acid fermentation:
1857, Louis Pasteur
cheese:
5,500 BC in Europe,
Central Asia,
Middle East

7.  Bacillus licheniformis,
 Bacillus sphaericus,
 Bacillus subtilis,
 Bacillus pumilus,
 Bacillus firmus,
 Escherichia coli
 Klebsiella
 Starter Cultures
 Lactococcus lactis
 Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus
 Lactobacillus helveticus
 Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus

8.  Yeasts and Molds:
 Torula yeast (Cyberlindnera jadinii)
 Penicillium camemberti
 Penicillium roqueforti
 Penicillium glaucum

10.  Standardized milk
 Raw milk (as such )
 sick cow milk (antibiotic
treatment)
 Pasteurized

11. • High temp short time
72oC for 15 sec
• Low temp long time
63oC for 30 min
• Hydrogen peroxide treatment

12. • After pasteurization, cooled at
32oC/ 90oF.
• Raw milk is heated at 90oF /32oC.
• Favorable temperature for bacterial
growth.

13. • Add starter culture.
• Ripen it at 32oC for 30 min.
• Thus fermentation starts.
• pH lowers.

14. • Starter culture is small amount of
bacteria ,added in milk to start
ripening by lowering the pH.
• Torula yeast brick ,
limberger cheese.
• Penicillium roqueforti blue
cheese

15. • Lactic acid produced.
• Addition of rennet.
• Rennet contain enzyme chymosin
which convert k-casien into para-k-
casien and glycomacropeptide.
• Leave it for 30 min for firm
coagulation.

17. • When cheese curd is ready, remove
cheese whey.
• Presence of water and bacteria
cause decomposition of food.
• So perform partial dehydration.

18. • Temp is raised to 44oC.
• The curd is cut into small cubes to
'scald' the curd particles.
• Cheese whey is expressed from the
particles.

19.  The curds are allowed to set until they reach a
pH of about 6.4
 Loaves" of curds are cut. After ten minutes, the
loaves are turned over and stacking begins
 Every ten minutes when the loaves must be
turned over, they are stacked. This step uses the
weight of the loaves upon each other to help
expel additional moisture. The first time this
occurs, two loaves are stacked together. The
next time, the loaves are turned, and two stacks
of two are put together.

20. • Milled curd pieces are put back to
vat
• 0.65% salt is added. Sprinkle dry salt
on curds and mixing in salt.
• In some cheese varieties like
mozzarella, curd is cut into loaves,
which are then placed in brine(salt
solutions).

21. The salted curd pieces are placed in
cheese hoops and pressed into
blocks to form the cheese

22.  The pressed blocks of cheese are either
bound with muslin-like cloth,
or waxed or vacuum packed in plastic bags to
be stored for maturation
 Depending on the variety, cheese can be
aged from several months to several years.

23. • Store it in vacuum packed or
airtight plastic bag.

24. Several types on the basis of:
1. Length of aging (cheese maturation)
2. Texture
3. Making method
4. Fat content
5. Milk source

25. 1. Soft Cheese:
 Soft, smooth, creamy texture
 No heating and pressing
 50-80% moisture content
 Uses:
 As a spread on bread and crackers
 Usually not for cooking

26.  Examples
o Unripened/Fresh
 Not ripened or aged during processing
 Short shelf life
 Cottage, Ricotta, Mozzarella, Cream
o Ripened
 Camembert, Brie, Caciotta
o Salt cured or pickled
 Feta, Domiati

27. 2. Semi-soft Cheese
 More firm and compact
 39-50% moisture content
 Can be used for cooking purposes
 Examples
o Ripened by mold growth
 Also known as blue or veined cheese
 Network of green blue veins of molds
 Molds include Penicillium roqueforti and Penicillium glaucum
 Strong and salty flavor
 Roquefort, Stilton, Gorgonzola, Danish blue
o Ripened by bacteria
 Limbruger, Brick

28. 3. Firm/Semi-Hard Cheese:
 Considered as “all purpose” cheese
 Pressed to remove most whey during production
 34-45% moisture content
 Can be used for sandwiches and snacks
 Cheddar, Colby, Edam
4. Hard Cheese:
 < 39% moisture content
 Long maturation period
 Very long shelf life
 Can last for 2 years in refrigerator
 Examples
o Without Eyes, ripened by bacteria
 Cheddar, Caciocavallo
o With eyes, ripened by bacteria
 Emmental, Gruyere, Swiss

29. 5. Very Hard Cheese:
 13-34% moisture content
 Very long aging period
 Can be upto 2 years
 Examples
 Asiago old, Parmesan, Romano, Grana
6. Processed Cheese:
 Made by melting a blend of grated cheese, milk, more salt, food
coloring, flavors and seasonings
 Can be used for cooking
 Long shelf life
 Examples
 Processed cheese slices, Cheese spreads

30.  Many advantages as follow
 Nutritional Value:
 Contains vitamins such as A, B6, C, D, E, K
 Other vitamins include Thiamin, Riboflavin,
Niacin.
 Dental Care:
 High Calcium
 Low lactose
 Raise pH of plaque offers protection against
dental cavities.

31.  Bone Health:
 Enriched in vitamin B, A, D
 Also contains calcium, magnesium, zinc
 Strengthen bones and cartilage
 Healthy for children and women (particularly
lactating women)
 Controlling Hypertension:
 low fat cheeses such as Cottage, Feta,
Ricotta are good for hypertension patients

32.  Reduced Risk of Osteoporosis:
 In post menopausal women
 As cheese is enriched in vitamins, calcium
and protein
 Omega 3 fatty acids:
 Found in cheeses made from cow milk
 Healthy for cardiovascular system and brain
 Enhance blood formation
 Strengthens liver
 Facilitate absorptions of nutrients

33.  Cardiovascular problems:
 Cheese contains large amount of saturated
fat
 High intake of saturated fats increase
Cholesterol
 Results in increase risk of cardiovascular
diseases, obesity, diabetes
 Allergies, intolerances, sensitivities:
 Persons sensitive to casein protein develops
allergies
 Fresh cheeses like mozzarella triggers
reaction in persons with lactose intolerance

34.  Kidney Disorders:
 Phosphorus in high quantities
 Harmful for persons having kidney diseases
 Prostate cancer:
 High calcium causes prostate cancer
 Neonatal infection and death:
 Cheese promotes growth of Listeria bacteria
 L.monocytogenes cause serious infections in
infants and pregnant woman
