  • Consultancy and Market Research Food and Dairy 1
    Consultancy and Market Research Food and Dairy www.clal.it CLASSIFICATION OF ITALIAN CHEESES According to the Italian law (Royal Decree n. 2033 of 1925), «cheese is the product obtained from whole or partly skimmed milk, or from cream, after coagulation by acidification or by renneting, also using starter bacteria or kitchen salt». Commonly cheese is considered to be a milk derivative, obtained by the precipitation of casein; therefore ricotta, which is obtained from whey, is not a cheese. Cheeses are classified on the basis of a series of parameters, which may be combined in several different manners. These parameters refer to: - type of milk employed - fat content - consistency, depending on moisture content - technology adopted during cheese-making and temperature of curd processing - duration of ripening - denomination. ►On the basis of the type of employed milk, cheeses are distinguished in: - cow milk cheeses - ewe’s milk cheeses - buffalo milk cheeses - goat milk cheeses For cheeses not produced from cow milk, indication of the species is mandatory. ►On the basis of fat content, expressed on dry matter, cheeses are classified as follows (Law n. 142/1992): - full-fat cheeses: fat content, expressed on dry matter, over 35% (Robiola, Gorgonzola, Taleggio, Bitto, Fontina, Montasio, Bra, Raschera, Grana Padano, Parmigiano-Reggiano, Pecorino, ecc.); - light (or semi-fat) cheeses: fat content varying between 20 and 35% on dry matter; - low-fat cheeses: obtained from skimmed milk; fat content below 20% on dry matter. It is noteworthy that for many P.D.O. cheeses obtained from partly skimmed milk (e.g. Grana Padano, Parmigiano-Reggiano, Asiago, Castelmagno, Raschera, etc.) the Product Specification only indicates a minimum fat content on dry matter.

  • AP-42, 9.6.1: Natural and Processed Cheese
    9.6.1 Natural And Processed Cheese 9.6.1.1 General1-3 The United States is one of the largest producers of cheese in the world. The total number of industry establishments in the United States in 1995 was 432. In 1995, total natural cheese production in the U. S., excluding cottage cheeses, was 6.9 billion pounds, and total processed cheese production was 2.3 billion pounds. Wisconsin is the leading producer of cheese in the United States, accounting for over 30 percent of all cheese production in the country. Popular types of natural cheeses include unripened (e. g., cottage cheese, cream cheese), soft (e. g., Brie, Camembert), semi-hard (e. g., Brick, Muenster, Roquefort, Stilton), hard (e. g., Colby, Cheddar), blue veined (e. g., Blue, Gorgonzola), cooked hard cheeses (e. g., Swiss, Parmesan), and pasta filata (stretched curd, e. g., Mozzarella, Provolone). Examples of processed cheeses include American cheese and various cheese spreads, which are made by blending two or more varieties of cheese or blending portions of the same type of cheese that are in different stages of ripeness. 9.6.1.2 Process Description4-9 The modern manufacture of natural cheese consists of four basic steps: coagulating, draining, salting, and ripening. Processed cheese manufacture incorporates extra steps, including cleaning, blending, and melting. No two cheese varieties are produced by the same method. However, manufacturing different cheeses does not require widely different procedures but rather the same steps with variations during each step, the same steps with a variation in their order, special applications, or different ripening practices.
