Cheeses manufactured from milk pro- duced from mountain pastures (M, n = 5, 1500–1850 m) were deemed to be more “fruity”, “animal”, “boiled milk” and “hazelnut” and less pungent and “propionic acid” than cheeses made from milk produced from valley pastures (V,n = 5, 850–1100 m). It was possible to partly attribute these differ- ences in flavour to the presence of protein-based volatile compounds in the cheeses. The V cheeses had a greater variety of flavours than the M cheeses. Cheeses from gramineae-rich pastures had the most intense “cooked cabbage” odours, related to the greater amounts of sulphur compounds in these cheeses. Terpenes, which are more abundant in cheeses produced from dicotyledon-rich pastures, did not contribute directly to cheese aroma. The differences in flavour between the cheeses manufactured by the 3 producers were of the same magnitude as those observed between different pastures used by a same producer. The origin of the volatile compounds in the cheeses – whether of microbial origin or from the feed – was discussed. cheese / flavour / volatile compound / proteolysis / pasture Résumé — Relations entre la flaveur et la composition chimique de fromages d’Abondance fa- briqués à partir de laits produits sur différents types de pâturages. Les relations entre la flaveur et la composition des fromages à pâte pressée demi-cuite de type Abondance (Haute-Savoie, France), ont été étudiées dans des conditions naturelles de production du fromage à partir de pâturages diffé- rents exploités par 3 producteurs. Les fromages fabriqués à partir de laits produits sur des pâturages de montagne (M, n = 5, 1500–1850 m) ont été jugés plus « fruité », « animal », « lait cuit » et « noisette » * Correspondence and reprints Tel.: (33) 3 84 73 63 03; fax: (33) 3 84 37 37 81; e-mail: [email protected] 758 Ch. Bugaud et al. et moins piquant et « propionique » que les fromages issus de laits produits sur des pâturages de vallée (V, n = 5, 850–1100 m). Ces différences de flaveur ont pu être attribuées en partie à la présence dans les fro- mages de composés volatils issus du catabolisme des acides aminés. Les fromages V présentaient une plus grande diversité de flaveur que les fromages M. Les fromages issus de pâturages riches en graminées étaient les plus intenses en odeur « chou cuit », flaveur liée aux quantités plus importantes de composés soufrés dans ces fromages. Les terpènes, plus abondants dans les fromages issus de pâturages riches en di- cotylédones, n’ont pas contribué directement à l’arôme des fromages. Les différences de flaveur des fro- mages entre les 3 producteurs ont été du même ordre de grandeur que celles observées chez un même producteur entre différents pâturages. Les origines microbienne et alimentaire des composés volatils des fromages ont été discutées. fromage / flaveur / composé volatil / protéolyse / pâturage 1.

R D By Débora The theme of this year’s Slow Food Cheese Kefir grains Pereira event (slated to take place in Bra, Italy, from September 15 to 18) is Natural is Possible, advocating cheesemaking without the use of commercial starter cultures. “It is a question of biodiversity preservation,” argues Piero Sardo, President of the Slow Food Foundation for Biodiversity. “Nowadays, everyone is using the same starter cultures, thereby erasing the ability to link a cheese to its terroir. Moreover, it is a matter of survival for small farmers.

  • Montbeliarde : Bred for the French Cheese Industry
    Montbeliarde : Bred for the French cheese Industry The main use of milk in France is cheese making and France is recognized widely and internationally for its high quality and diversity of cheeses. It looks like a detail but the cheese industry allowed a lot of mountain areas to sustain economically thanks to their pastures and cows herds. Areas like Alps, Jura, Pyrenees, Massif Central and Vosges are renowned for their specific cheeses that keep local activities in hard access regions. More recently, changes that are affecting the dairy industry lead to more added value products such as cheese, which gives new opportunities for that industry. To achieve better economic efficiency, dairy farmers of the Montbeliarde area (Central east of France) organized themselves for decades around local cooperatives running small cheese plants called “Fruitières”. There, dairy farmers sell cheese instead of milk and developed strategies to get a better product, increasing cheese yield (on the cow side) and increasing the quality and flavour of cheese (process side). All this led to a maximum of added value and made “Comte” cheese the N°1 high quality cheese in all France for years (45.000 tons/year). The genetic side is important and several scientific studies demonstrated it. The cheese process depends a lot on both bacteriological and organoleptical milk quality. A- Factors influencing Cheese Yield 1-Protein content Cheese Yield is proportional to milk % of protein up to 3,8%. Above that figure, cheese yield doesn’t increase significatively. 2-Casein type. Casein is the principal protein in milk. During the cheese making process, casein solidifies, curdles or coagulates into cheese through the action of rennet.

In the production of full-fat raw milk cheese, the cow’s breed can modify the texture of cheeses because of differences in fat in dry matter content due to variations in the fat/protein ratio in milk. Within the same breed, large differences in texture and taste were observed between cheeses β α issued from milk differing by the genetic variant of -casein (in dairy cows) or s1- casein (in goats). Except in very early or late lactation, the physiological stage had no significant effect on cheese sen- sory characteristics. In contrast, mastitis has a well-known negative impact on cheese sensory pro- perties. Feeding dairy cows or goats with corn silage by comparison with hay or grass silage leads to whiter cheeses and sometimes to differences in flavour. Conserving grass as silage, by compari- son with hay, has no important effect on cheese sensory characteristics, except on colour, which is yellower with grass silage.

  • Non-Thermal Processing of Skim Milk: Impact on Microbial Reduction
    Non-thermal processing of skim milk: Impact on microbial reduction, physico-chemical properties and quality of Brie type cheese by Dipendra Khanal A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Food Science Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Dipendra Khanal, May, 2014 ABSTRACT NON-THERMAL PROCESSING OF SKIM MILK: IMPACT ON MICROBIAL REDUCTION, PHYSICO-CHEMICAL PROPERTIES AND QUALITY OF BRIE TYPE CHEESE Dipendra Khanal Advisor: University of Guelph, 2014 Dr. Mansel W. Griffiths Pulsed Electric Fields (PEF) and Microfiltration (MF) are emerging non-thermal technologies that are gaining in popularity, since they preserve food by inactivation of microorganisms and fulfill the demand for minimally processed and fresh-like foods with natural taste and extended shelf life. The present research investigated the effect of either stand-alone or a combination of PEF and MF treatments on microbial reduction, physicochemical properties in skim milk and its comparison with HTST treatments, and also explored the quality of Brie type cheese preparation and its comparison with raw milk cheese. Reduction in microbial load by non-thermal technologies were comparable or even better than HTST treatments, and effects on physico-chemical properties were varied depending on the use of different pore sized MFs. Significant effects of non-thermal technologies were not observed on cheese quality and microbial analysis of ripened cheese did not detect the presence of pathogenic bacteria. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to thank my supervisor Dr. Mansel W. Griffiths for his support, encouragement and enthusiasm during my graduate work. Dr. Griffiths has provided an opportunity to explore new world of science and technology by accepting me as a graduate student and welcomed by showing faith and provided the environment to update my knowledge in food science field, not only as a graduate student, but also as a researcher and problem shooter.
