ABSTRACT

Nutty flavor in Cheddar cheese is desirable, and recent research demonstrated that 2- and 3-methyl butanal and 2-methyl propanal were primary sources of nutty flavors in Cheddar. Because malty strains of Lactococcus lactis (formerly Streptococcus lactis var. maltigenes) are characterized by the efficient production of these and other Strecker aldehydes during growth, this study investigated the influence of a malty L. lactis adjunct culture on nutty flavor development in Chedd...

Characterization of Nutty Flavor in Cheddar Cheese
Journal of Dairy Science ; ABSTRACT The objectives of this study were to determine the volatile components responsible for the sensory perception of nutty flavor in Cheddar cheese. Cheddar cheeses with and without nutty flavors were selected by descriptive sensory analysis. Volatile aroma components from Cheddar cheeses with
Biotechnological Methods to Accelerate Cheddar Cheese Ripening
Critical Reviews in Biotechnology ; ABSTRACT Cheese is one of the dairy products that can result from the enzymatic coagulation of milk. The basic steps of the transformation of milk into cheese are coagulation, draining, and ripening. Ripening is the complex process required for the development of a cheese's flavor, texture and
A Model System for Studying the Effects of Colloidal Calcium Phosphate Concentration on the Rheological Properties of Cheddar Cheese
Journal of Dairy Science ; ABSTRACT A novel model system was developed for studying the effects of colloidal Ca phosphate (CCP) concentration on the rheological properties of Cheddar cheese, independent of proteolysis and any gross compositional variation.
