Fermented milk products, also known as cultured dairy foods, cultured dairy products, or cultured milk products, are dairy foods that have been fermented with lactic acid bacteria.
This particular presentation describes all the fermented milk products like yoghurt, cheese etc. VIEW, SHARE, ENJOY!
2. INTRODUCTION
Milk is a whitish liquid containing proteins, fats, lactose , various
vitamins and minerals that is produced by the mamary glands of all
mature female
the milk of cows, goats and other animals used as food b humans
mik is extremely perishable and many ways have been developed to
preserve it
The earliest method which have been used for many thousands of
years is fermentation
Fermentation is a metabolic process in which an organism convert a
carbohydrate such as starch and sugar into an alcohol or an acid
Example yeast perform fermentationto obtain energy by converting
sugar into alcohol
Bacteria perform fermentation by converting carbohydrates into
lactic acid
3. HISTORY OF FRMENETATION
It is a natural process
People applied fermentation to make products such as
wine ,cheese ,beer etc.
In 1850s and1860s Louis Paster became the first scientist
to study fermentation when he demonstrated
fermentation was caused by living cells
He showed that lactic acid fermentation is caused by
living organism
In 1860 he demonstrated that bacteria cause souring in
milk a process formely thought to be merely chemical
change and his work in identifying the role of
microorganism in food spoilage lead to the process of
pasteurization
7. TYPES OF CHEESE
I. Soft cheese
II. Semi soft cheese
III. Semi hard cheese
IV. Hard cheese
V. Fresh cheese
VI. Blue cheese
VII.Processed cheese
8. SOFT CHEESE
Examples of soft cheese are camembert, feta, celtic etc.
This type of cheese does not undergo any heating or presseing
A penicillium fungus gives it furry white rind
Not usually used in cooking soft cheese are used to spread on bread or
crackers
Wine to serve is beaujolous
The organisms found is streptococcus cremoris , penicillium camemberti
found in camembert
Celtic cheese
10. SEMI SOFT CHEESE
Examples are gouda, port soft, muenster
This type of cheese does not undergo any heating or pressing
The rind is rinsed and brshed with a solution of salt water enriched
with a specific bacteria , which encourages orange coloured fungi to
appear
Ideal for snacking or deserts, some semi soft cheese may be used for
cooking if they stand up to heat well enough
Wine to serve is red bordeaux
The organisms found are lactococcus lactis found in
gouda, brevibacterium linens found in muenster
11. HARD CHEESE
Examples aged
manchego, mimolette, tuscano, pelorina etc
A hard cheese needs to have less water content (30%
to 48% ) in the end product than a soft cheese (
which has 50% to 70%)
Packed into moulds , firmly pressed and stored for
long periods ( up to two years ) they bocome hard and
more pungent over time
Wine to serve them red wine as burguncly
12. SEMI HARD CHEESE
Examples are cheddar ,edam , emmental, cantal etc
These cheese onces transformed into curds are heated
, pressed, moulded and left to ferment .
This is how the famous holes appear in cheese that is
stored in cellars ( such as emmental )
They are very rich in calcium
Maturing can take from three to nine months or even
longer
Wine serve full bodied red wines such as rioja
The organism found are lactobacillus casei, streptococcus
cremoris found in cheddar
14. BLUE CHEESE
Examples are roquefort , gorgonzola , stilton
The production of this cheese involves inoculating it with fine long
skewers containing penicillium cultures which allow mould to
develop in the cheese
This is what produce the green or blue veins
Wine to serve is sweet wines , loupiac sauternes
The organisms found are penicillium roqueforti and lactococcus
lastis in roquefort
16. FRESH CHEESE
Examples are cottage , mozzarella and fromage frains
COTTAGE CHEESE
This is fresh cheese with 80% water content
Milk is curdled an drained but little other processing takes place and
there is no ageing
Cattage cheese is typically eaten with fruits or in salad
MOZZARELLA
This cheese is obtained through kneading and stretching the curd
until it reaches the desired consistency
Mozzaella is often used in pizza and lesagine
FROMAGE FRAINS
This cheese is hardly drained or matured
Its milk proteins simply coagulate under the effect of lactic ferments
It can be eaten on its own or with added flavouring
18. PROCESSED CHEESE
This cheese is made up of a mixture of cheese , butter, cream and milk
that is heated and emulsified
Some varieties are flavoured or spiced
The shelf life is generally very long
Cheese are also classified as unriped if produced by single step
fermentation or ripened if addition growth is required during
maturation of cheese to achive the desired taste , texture and aroma
Ripening involves additional enzymatic transformations after the
formation of cheese curd
Various fungi are also used in the ripening of different cheese
The unriped cheese is inoculated with fungal spores
19. PRODUCTION OF CHEESE
Basic stages involved in cheese making are as follows :
Standardization; this is done to adjust fat or to have balanced ratio of fat
to casein or increasing fat through cream for making cream cheese
Clarification; effective alternative to filtration for the removal of
extraneous matter, leucocytes and some bacteria , it is carried out at 32c to
35c centrifugally
Bacterofugation; if centrifuged milk is passed through the unit a seond
time about 90% of the remaing 10% is removed, thus total 99% bacteria can
be removed
Homogenization; milk is homogenized at low pressure to reduce whey
exudation from the coagulum, to make cheese white and promote fat
hydrolysis
Thermization ; the raw milk is stored for few days before using it for
cheese making, it is subjected to heat treatment at 63C for 10 to 15 seconds
and cooled at 5C
20. Ultrafiltration; by membrane filtration under low pressure milk can be
sepaated into retentate with fats , casein, whey proteins
Ripening of milk; this is achieved by heating the milk to 30 to 33C and
adding starter bacteria eg. Lactococcus lactis , which has the effect of
speeding up the natural process of milk souring
Rennetting; after increase in acidity of milk created by startee rennet
extract is added to milk and uniformly distributed to efffect coagulation of
milk eg of coagulating enzyme is bacillus sutilis or mucor meihei
Cutting the coagulum; this has a great effect it release a large volume of
whey,establishes the size of the curd particle
Scalding; in high scalding the temperature may be 52 to 58 C , in medium
scald 30 to 42C and in low scald is 30 to 35C . During combined action of
stirring and heat , lactic acid in curd particles is formed by the starter
organism
Draining the whey; the cud is allowed to settle, acidity is measured untill
it reaches the desired level
Milling; milling of the texturized matted curd is done at 0.6 to 0.7C
acidity helps in distribution of salt which act as preservative
21. Pressing; the curd is filled in moulds and pressed, the degree varies with
the type of cheese
Dressing and package ; the green cheese is packed in heat shrink barrier
film
24. Yoghurt is produced by the controlled fermentation of milk
by two species of bacteria Lactobacillus bulgaricus and L
actotococcus thermophilus (streptococcus thermophilus)
The sugar in milk is called lactose which is fermented to
acid ( lactic acid) and it is the one which cause he
characteristic curd to form
Streptococcus thermophilus bring the pH of the milk down
to 5.5
Lactobacillus bulgaricus convert lactose to lactic acid
Proteolytic enzymes from L . bulgaricus break down milk
protein into peptide s
These peptides stimulate the growth of L . themophilus
which in turn produces formic acid and carbondioxide
These are the growth stimulants for the L . Bulgaricus
27. Set yoghurt
A solid set where by the yoghurt
firms in a container and not
disturbed, its incubated and
cooled in the final package .
The firm is jelly like texture
28. Stirred yoghurt
Made in large container then
stirred or otherwise dispensed into
secondary serving containers .
The consistency of the set is
broken and the texture is less firm
than set yoghurt
29. Drinking yoghurt
Stirred yoghurt to which addition
milk and flavours are mixed in.
a fruit or fruit syrups is added
mixed in milk to achieve the
desired thickness.
The shelf life of this product is 4
to 10 days , since the pH is raised by
fresh milk addition.
Commericialproducts
recommend a thoroughly shafe
before consumption
30. Flavored yoghurt
Fruits , fruits syrups or pie filling
can be added to the yoghurt just
before poured into pots , it usually
contain about 50% sugar
32. Frozen yoghurt
Incubated like stirred yoghurt
, cooling is achieved by pumping
through a freezer like ice cream, it
has a texture like ice cream
33. PRODUCTION OF YOGHURT
Raw milk is taken which have low count of organisms and substances which
suppress the development of starter microbes eg. Streptococcus thermophilus
Standardization of fats; this involves the removal of fat content of milk , mixing
full cream milk with skim milk or by using standardizing centrifuge
Homogenization; is done by first pre treating it to 60 to 65C and passing it
through an homogenizer at 100 to 200 kg/cm2 to stabilize the product and
provide smooth texture
Heat treat; this involves heating the milk at 90 to 95 for 5mins to improve the
texture of yoghurt
Cooling ; after heating the substrate is cooled to incubation temperature 42 to
45 C
The culture contain two strains of microorganism streptococcus salivarius and
lactobacillus delbrueckii
37. BUTTER MILK
It is a fermented milk product made by using mesophilic starters
Different products are produced by using different stains of lactic acid bacteria
as starter cultures and different fractious of whole milk as the starting substrate
Sour cream uses streptococcus cremoris or S. lactis for producing lactic acid
and leuconostoc cremoris for characteristic flavour
Cream is starting substrate , butter is normally made by churning cream that
has been soured by lacctic accid bacteria
Streptococcus cremoris or S.lactis is used to produce lactic acid rapidly and
leuconostoc citrovorum produce necessary flavors
38. PRODUCTION OF BUTTER MILK
Fresh or skim milk is taken and standardise making it free from antibiotics
and detergents
Milk is homogenized at 200 kg/cm2 at 15C then heat treated at 90C for 13
mins to get satisfactory end product
Then it is cooled to 23C and inoculated wit a mixed culture having
lactococcus lactis and leuconostoc citrovorum as primary produces of aroma
and flavour
The inoculation may range from 1 to 2%
When acidity reaches 0.9% the product is gently mixed , cooled bottled
and stored at 5C
The fermentation time may be around 16 to 20 hrs
The final product is a viscous drink with pleasing aroma and flavour
