Milk Curds Bacterial Whey Cheese Making Pasterised Kill Natural

Cheese making involves pasteurizing milk, adding bacterial cultures to form curds, cutting and pressing the curds, and ripening to develop flavor and texture.

A fabricação de queijo envolve a pasteurização do leite, adição de culturas bacterianas para formar coalhos, corte e prensagem dos coalhos, e maturação para desenvolver sabor e textura.

Front cheese-making
Back - milk pasterised (to kill most natural bacteria) and homogenised (to ensure fat droplets evenly distributed throughout milk)
- bacterial cultures added and kept until milk seperates into solid curds and liquid whey
- curds cut and cooked in whey and strained
- curds put into drums where they are pressed, theyre left to dry, mature and ripen (to inhibit bacterial activity)
- the bacteria feeds on lactose, chnging taste of milk, so milk goes off
