Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to develop a bite-size smoked cheese which has a robust smoked flavor while preventing a deterioration in texture caused by a hard film forming on the surface of the cheese that has been smoked. It was discovered that by smoking 40 to 70% of the total surface area of a bite-size cheese while leaving the remaining surface unsmoked, obtained is a bite-size smoked cheese which enables a robust smoked flavor and the original flavor of the cheese to be simultaneously tasted, and which has a good melt-in-your-mouth quality and is highly palatable.

Applicant: MEIJI CO., LTD. (JP);

Application: № 2015 JP 76 105, 15.09.2015,

Date of publication: 24.03.2016;

Priority data: 2014 0 188 278, 16.09.2014, Japan.

Abstract

Provided is a natural cheese exhibiting heat-resistant shape retention without loss of the latent natural-cheese composition, and a method for manufacturing said cheese. It was found that adding transglutaminase to a cheese curd of a natural cheese obtained after curdling raw material milk and discharging the whey, and maturing the resulting cheese curd, makes it possible to manufacture a natural cheese exhibiting heat-resistant shape retention. It was found that in this case, a natural cheese exhibiting heat-resistant shape retention can be manufactured without increasing the composition of water and milk protein in the raw material milk. Specifically, it is possible to provide: a novel natural cheese which exhibits excellent heat-resistant shape retention and neither neither melts nor deforms when cooked or processed such as by heating in a frying pan or an oven; and a method for manufacturing the natural cheese.
