                         What is cheese?



Cheese is a generic term for a diverse group of milk-
based food products. Cheese is produced in wide-ranging
flavors, textures, and forms.
Cheese consists of proteins and fat from milk, usually the milk
of cows, buffalo, goats, or sheep. It is produced
by coagulation of the milk protein casein. Typically, the milk is
acidified and addition of the enzyme rennet causes
coagulation. The solids are separated and pressed into final
form.[1] Some cheeses have molds on the rind or throughout.
Most cheeses melt at cooking temperature.
