  • Use of Iodised Salt in Cheese Manufacturing to Improve Iodine Status in the UK
    Use of iodised salt in cheese manufacturing to improve iodine status in the UK by Suruchi Pradhan A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire November/2019 1 STUDENT DECLARATION FORM Type of Award Doctor of Philosophy in Nutrition School School of Sports and Health Sciences Sections marked * delete as appropriate 1. Concurrent registration for two or more academic awards *I declare that while registered as a candidate for the research degree, I have not been a registered candidate or enrolled student for another award of the University or other academic or professional institution 2. Material submitted for another award *I declare that no material contained in the thesis has been used in any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work. Signature of Candidate ______ ________________________________________________ Print name: Suruchi Pradhan ____________________________________________________________ 2 Abstract Iodine is an essential trace mineral. Iodine deficiency during pregnancy can lead to adverse postnatal consequences such as impaired mental development, reduced intelligence scores and impaired motor skills in the offspring of the deficient women (Khazan et al., 2013, Rayman et al, 2008). There is growing evidence in the UK of low dietary iodine intakes and potential iodine deficiency in vulnerable populations (pregnant women and women of child bearing age group) (Rayman and Bath, 2015, Vanderpump et al., 2011) and a paucity of information on the iodine content of food products. In developing countries where iodine deficiency is widespread, salt has successfully been used as a vehicle for iodine fortification, however iodised salt is not widely available in UK supermarkets and there are valid health concerns about promoting salt intake.

  • Quicke's Barbers 1833 Grilled Cheese
    E P I C U R E Quicke’s Artisanal, handmade clothbound cheddar p. 2 Barbers 1833 Vintage Reserve block cheddar p. 26 Grilled cheese Better than your mother's sandwiches p. 32 April 2017 www.epicurefoodscorp.com CHECK OUT THIS MONTH’S DEMOS Page 36 Quicke’s Traditional Cheddar As we toured Quicke’s, we began to understand the careful consideration that went in to each step of the cheese making process. From the length of the grass that the cows graze on throughout the year to the types of racks used to store each and every clothbound wheel, evey aspect was intentional. While other producers can claim to be Farmhouse, meaning they produce the milk which is used to make their cheese, Quicke’s is truly artisanal. Each step in the back- breaking cheddaring process is done by hand to maintain a dedication to quality that spans generations. Beginning the process on Quicke’s approximately 300 acres of grazing land, their cows are some of the happiest around. That is because they use what is commonly known as the New Zealand grazing system. Cows are rotated on a 24 hour basis between different, relatively smaller paddocks of grass. This ensures that the grass they are eating is neither too long, which would be too fibrous and not nutritious enough, nor too short, which would not be good for the grass. Starting from Valentine’s Day and lasting until Christmas time, Quicke’s cows are grazing outside, making a happier and healthier animal. Each cow is milked twice a day and fresh milk is piped in for cheese making each morning.

  • The Cheese Markets of the Netherlands by Lee Foster
    The Cheese Markets of the Netherlands by Lee Foster Few experiences satisfy the person who savors food and drink more than a journey to the source, the place where a favorite wine, cheese, or fruit is produced. The encounter imparts a knowledge of terrain and an appreciation of techniques used to make the prized food or drink. No book can teach this experience; no number of trips to the local delicatessen or bottle shop can equal it. For the appreciator of cheese, Dutch cheese is one of the gustatory glories of the Netherlands. The place to start is a good cheese store in Amsterdam. Beyond Amsterdam, you can visit the cheese markets at Alkmaar and at Gouda. You can also visit a cheese-making farm, Clara Maria, near Amsterdam. Details can be easily arranged by the Netherlands Board of Tourism office, www.holland.com. Cheese Shops in Amsterdam Cheese shops in Amsterdam, such as Abraham Kef’s, 192 Marninxstraat, are the places to make your first encounter with Dutch cheeses. At Kef’s you can make a tasting ceremony of cheese and wine. First, try a slice of Gouda, which is 60 percent of all the cheese produced in the Netherlands. Half of this Gouda is exported, making the Dutch one of the world’s largest exporters of cheese. Ask for a piece of Young Gouda, about three months old, which is imported to the U.S. labeled Young or Mild Gouda. Most Goudas are whole milk cheeses with a fat content of 48 percent. The Young Gouda has a creamy, buttery taste.

    DAIRY AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL On the economic importance and quality of the Dutch dairy sector Summary Quality and cooperation The Dutch dairy sector largely owes its strong global market position to high, consistent quality and a capacity for innovation. From our world-famous Gouda and Edam cheeses to milk powder and high-quality ingredients: dairy from the Netherlands is synonymous with the highest quality.

  • Summary and Conclusion Gouda Cheese Is a Variety of Semi-Hard
    Summary Summary and Conclusion Gouda cheese is a variety of semi-hard cheese group that raising in Europe. It is origined in the Netherlands and traditionally manufactured from cow's milk. Gouda cheese is made in flat, round shapes and block forms. Its weights vary from baby size (600g) to full size (20 Kg). Variants of Gouda cheese are made spiced, e.g. Kanter cheese with clove or Leyden cheese with cumin. The texture of Gouda cheese is firm, flexible and round or oval gas scattered throughout the curd. The color varies from ivory white to yellow. The flavor mild becoming piquant but not sour. Gouda cheese is one of the most popular semi-hard types consumed in Egypt. In spite of this popularity, there is main obstacle for making good quality Gouda cheese with less cost in Egypt. This obstacle is Gouda cheese needs ripening rooms to gains distinctive flavor, body and texture. In addition, it is expensive to hold the proper conditions for long times. Therefore, the work of this study was divided into two main parts as follows: Part I: Evaluation of Gouda cheese available in the Egyptian market. In this part, a survey was conducted on fourteen Gouda cheese samples at an age 90 days of ripening, which available in the local market, four brands are locally made and the rest are imported. All the samples were examined for their chemical composition and microbiological 159 Summary quality. This was carried out to be used as guide in comparison of experimental cheese from different treatments. The obtained results could be summarized as follows: 1- The moisture content of locally made and imported Gouda cheese was very similar to each other as an average of moisture content was 38.76% and 38.41%, respectively.
