Why is it important?

Full-fat and half-fat Turkish white cheeses were manufactured on an industrial scale and ripened for 180 days. The objective of this study was to evaluate the variation in chemical and volatile compounds as well as the textural and microstructural characteristics during ripening of Turkish white cheese produced by different production methods from full-fat and half-fat milk.

Perspectives

Heat treatment, fat content, addition of starter culture, changes in acidity and salt diffusion caused white cheeses to differ in their chemical, structural and aromatic properties during ripening.
