    Jagriti ShuklaBy Jagriti ShuklaMarch 20, 20236 Mins Read

    Cheese is one of the happiest accidents of food history. It is delicious and a piece of goodness when it comes into your mouth and gives you the heavenly treat. It is melting and gooey extravagance that amalgamates with anything.

    Cheese is a dairy product and is made from milk usually of cows, buffalo, goats, or sheep. Natural cheese is made with milk, salt, a starter culture, and an enzyme called rennet. When you mix these milk, salt, and live microbial cultures including rennet together, the rennet immediately curdles the milk. Simply drain off the curdled milk and pack it together with the curds.

    The making of cheese has been started from milk, but the milk comes from different animals give them a distinct flavor. Cow milk is the mildest, with a creamy, sweet flavor that gives the subtle base. Sheep milk has a mild grassy flavor with a tangier backbone and less buttery sweetness. So different animals have distinct flavors which varied the flavor of cheese also.

    There are different kinds of cheeses are made in different regions all over the world and there are so many variants of them. There are several cheese-making techniques. There are also different cheeses such as taste, color, aroma, flavor, texture, softness, mold content, and their shelf life.
