| Abstract: | A trial was made to produce Blue like cheese from both whole dry milk and non fat one. The resultant cheese was kept for ripening at 5°C for two months. Cheese made from reconstituted whole dried milks were characterized with higher moisture, salt, and protein contents and acidity than the control. Protein degradation and fat hydrolysis were found to be lower in these cheeses than the control. Organoleptically, cheese made from cow's milk was found to be superior to cheeses produced from reconstituted either non fat or whole dried milk, as regards flavour, body and texture and the distribution of P. requeforti. |
