摘要:
The invention provides a stable concentrated dairy liquid, such as concentrated milk, with improved flavor, color, and mouthfeel, and a method of production thereof. The method utilizes specific thermal treatments to produce the stable concentrated dairy liquid to which a stabilizer and mouthfeel enhancer are added. The resulting products have a sterilization value Fo of at least 5 that is also resistant to gelling and browning during high temperature sterilization and is also resistant to gelling and browning during storage for greater than six months. The method balances such thermal treatments with addition of stabilizer and enhancer to achieve the desired flavor/mouthfeel and sterilization and to achieve reduced level of soluble protein in the concentrated milk prior to concentration to resist gelation and minimize browning. Moreover, such processing may be utilized in a milk that is concentrated to a factor of 2.7 fold or higher and contains at least 8.5 percent protein.

The present invention provides process cheeses containing casein and whey protein with a ratio of casein to whey protein of from about 50:50 to about 75:25. Typically, the process cheese further contains an emulsifier, milkfat, and may contain one or more other ingredients such as, but not limited to, whole whey, cheese, and lactic acid. The present invention provides methods for producing the process cheese of the current invention using a pre-cook or post-cook homogenization step, and/or a modified dairy protein source. The modified dairy protein source includes high viscosity whey protein, emulsified high fat whey protein powder, low calcium whey protein, and/or high solubility milk protein.

The present invention is directed to cream cheese compositions in which the protein level is reduced to below 6.5 percent, and preferably between about 5 to about 6 percent, with acceptable baking properties. In order to obtain such a cream cheese composition with acceptable baking properties, a stabilizer composition is added to the low protein cream cheese. The stabilizer composition comprises a first stabilizer and a second stabilizer, wherein the first stabilizer is selected from the group consisting of carob gum and tara gum and the second stabilizer is selected from the group consisting of xanthan gum, carrageenan, maltodextrin, pectin, inulin, starch, gelatin, and agar.
摘要:
This invention relates to a cheese product and a novel method for preparing a cheese product. More specifically, this invention relates to cream cheese product prepared using an edible fat and polymerized whey protein, as a protein source, obtainable from a whey protein concentrate. A cream cheese product prepared according to the present method exhibits an unexpected increase in firmness and has excellent syneresis properties.

The invention is directed to a cream cheese-like product where non-casein protein replaces casein protein and a method for making such product. More specifically, the invention is directed to a process which is effective for making a cream cheese-like product substantially free of casein, wherein the process comprises: mixing (1) proteins other than milk caseins, (2) fat such as butter fat or other food grade fat, and (3) water to form a mixture; subjecting the mixture to a first homogenization to form a protein matrix stabilized emulsion system; heating the protein matrix stabilized emulsion system to a temperature effective to denature the proteins to form a denatured protein matrix stabilized emulsion; adjusting the pH of the denatured protein matrix stabilized emulsion to about 4 to about 6; subjecting the pH-adjusted emulsion to a second homogenization to form the cream cheese-like product; and packaging the cream cheese-like product. Optional ingredients such as stabilizers (e.g., gums), other emulsifiers, salts, coloring, and flavorings can be added to the mixture or to the emulsion (i.e., prior to the first or the second homogenization step).

A method for preparing processed cheese containing significant levels of soy protein which possesses all of the melt, firmness, and flavor characteristics of regular processed cheese is provided. The method utilizes one or more emulsions containing dairy ingredients and a soy protein ingredient. The emulsion(s) are blended with natural cheese, and heated in the presence of emulsifying salts to form a homogeneous, pumpable fluid cheese material that may be formed into sheets, slices or other desired forms. Preferred sources of soy protein include soy protein concentrates and soy protein isolates. Process cheese products containing between about 9 to about 12 percent soy protein may be obtained.

A process for producing a high moisture cream cheese having desirable textural characteristics (i.e., increased firmness) is provided. More specifically, the process of the invention provides a high moisture cream cheese with significantly increased firmness by controlling the moisture levels during the manufacturing process at levels below the final target moisture level of the final cream cheese product; the moisture level of the final composition is then adjusted to the final target moisture level by the addition of water. It has surprisingly been found that control of the moisture levels during the manufacturing process in this manner results in-significantly increased levels of firmness in the final cream cheese product. Indeed, the firmness of the high moisture cream cheese product produced using this method is about 5 to about 20 fold greater than standard cream cheese prepared without such moisture control.
