There are many different types of cheese in stores, but not really many of them.
⠀🧀In the post, we give some tips so that you can find exactly the cheese that you like. And let’s tell you what a cheese product is because this inscription is very often on cheese labels.
⠀
Let’s start with what are the cheeses in terms of fat content.
⠀
• Low fat – less than 20%.
• Light – from 20 to 30%
• Normal – from 40 to 50%
• Double fat content – from 60 to 75%
• Triple fat – more than 75%.
⠀
And now a few criteria to pay attention to before buying.
⠀
🟨Price
Real-quality cheese cannot be cheap. For example, to prepare 1 kg of cheese you need from 10 to 20 liters of milk, so do not expect that a good product can be bought at a low price.
⠀
🟨Color
If the cheese is uneven in color with spots – then it is not ripe. This criterion does not apply to cheeses with blue mold.
⠀
🟨Smell
The cheese smells like milk, the aged varieties have a specific aroma. If there is no smell at all – most likely, in front of you counterfeit or cheese is not yet ripe.
⠀
МаTaste
The cheese should have a pleasant taste. Keep in mind that all types of cheese are different, and the same Camembert in a different form may look like cheese to someone.
⠀
🟨Composition
If the composition includes milk fat substitutes or milk protein substitutes, various vegetable fats, including palm oil, then this cheese should not be bought. Here is a cheese product made by cheese technology.
