A METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SOFT CHEESE HAVING A HIGH MAGNESIUM CONTENT, A SALTING BASIN FOR SUCH CHEESES, AND CHEESES OBTAINED THEREBY

摘要

This process comprises the characteristic operations of adding rennet to the milk at 38 DEG C, of mixing and of washing the cut curds for 30 to 40 min until the pieces of these curds have been reduced to the size of grains of wheat, of a salting operation in a tank (1) equipped with an immersed conveyor (8) and with a pump (23) for circulating the salting solution, the cheeses being displaced counter-currentwise with respect to the solution for a period of 2 to 3 min, this solution being rich in magnesium chloride and poor in magnesium sulphate.
