Preparation and Properties of Low Fat Processed Cheese Spreads

Reduced and Low Fat Spreads

Effect of lupine as cheese base substitution on technological and nutritional properties of processed cheese analogue.

BACKGROUND Healthy foods have been met with marked success in the last two decades. Lupine flours, protein concentrates, and isolates can be applied as a substance for enriching different kinds of food systems such as bakery products, lupine pasta, ice cream, milk substitutes. Imitation processed cheese is made from mixtures of dairy and/or non dairy proteins and fat/oils and is variously label...

Hot cheese: a processed Swiss cheese model.

James Reason's classic Swiss cheese model is a vivid and memorable way to visualise how patient harm happens only when all system defences fail. Although Reason's model has been criticised for its simplicity and static portrait of complex systems, its use has been growing, largely because of the direct clarity of its simple and memorable metaphor. A more general, more flexible and equally memor...

physical, chemical and sensory properties of low-fat mozzarella cheese made from blend of two fat replacers

in this research, the effect of different levels of carrageenan gum (0.05– 0.2%) and whey protein concentrate (0.5 - 1.5%) on physical, chemical and sensory properties of low fat mozzarella cheese have been investigated. use of these fat replacers cause significant differences (p ≤ 0.05) on chemical properties as increase in gum and wpc resulted moisture and protein content to increase but ph t...

The effect of aging on low-fat, reduced-fat, and full-fat Cheddar cheese texture.

This study investigated the effects of aging and fat content on the texture of Cheddar cheese, both mechanical and sensory aspects, over a 9-mo aging period. Cheeses of 6, 16, and 33% fat were tested at 0.5, 3, 6, and 9 mo of aging. Cheeses were evaluated by a trained sensory panel using an established texture lexicon as well as instrumental methods, which were used to probe cheese structure. S...
