Hard cheese alternatives - when time and money count

摘要

No pasta dish is complete without a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. Salads get a boost with shredded cheese. Soups and risotto get even better with the sharp flavour of grated cheese. Consumers like hard cheese for their versatile use and finishing touch to food. Hard cheeses, such as parmesan cheese, Grana Padano and Pecorini Romano, are expensive, due to their long maturation time and high amount of milk solids. At KMC, a recombined recipe with CheeseMaker specialty starches,vegetable fat and a low amount of rennet casein was developed. This formulation has a short production time, no maturation time and a low amount of milk proteins, which makes this imitation cheese a very cost-effective alternative.
