Dairy & Milk Products
What are DAIRY PRODUCTS ?
Dairy products are commodities which have been produced by primary
processing or secondary processing of milk.
All mammals produce milk which contains the correct balance of
nutrients with which to feed their young.
This milk can also be produced and used commercially; for example
sheep, goat and cows milk.

Milk
Most milk in the UK comes from Friesian cows and has been heat treated –
pasteurised, sterilised or ultra heat-treated. This has a negligible effect on its
nutritional value but increases its shelf life and destroys undesirable bacteria.
There is now a wider range of fresh milks available from your milkman. Milks can be
classed according to their fat content and heat treatment they receive at the
dairy.
TYPES OF MILK
Pasteurised Semi-skimmed Skimmed
Milk
Other types of milk
UHT Milk – this milk owes its long life to ultra high temperature
132*c for one second followed by packaging.
Flavoured Milk – usually UHT MILK, either
semi-skimmed or skimmed.
Dried Skimmed Milk, Evaporated Milk, Condensed Milk-
full cream or skimmed
Specialist Dairy Products
Sheep
Sheep's mil k is nutritious and delicious. The mil k
has a rich, bland, slightly sweet taste.
It has twice as many minerals as cow’s or goats milk.
British sheep dairying is becoming more popular
due the fact that people with allergies find these
are better for them than Cow’s products.
Products available are sheep
milk,ice-cream, cheese and
yoghurt
Specialist Products
Goat
Products than come from goat’s are becoming more popular
due to lesser fat and the products are more digestible. Many
people who are unable to have cows milk can often drink goat’s
Milk. Goat’s cheese is well liked and considered a delicacy.
Products available are goats
Milk, Cream, cheese, butter
and yoghurt
Nutritional Value of milk
Milk is a valuable source of calcium, riboflavin and protein to our diet. For
vegetarians it can be a valuable source of vitamin A & B12. However they should
not rely on sterilized of UHTmilks for vitamin B12 as they don’t contain as much as
pasteurised milk.
Why do we need
calcium?
A calcium rich diet is required to help build strong bones in babies, growing
children and pregnant women.
For the rest of us it keeps our bones strong and helps delay symptoms of a
disease, known as Osteoporosis, which is becoming more common.
Cheese
Cheese is made from cows, ewes or goats milk and it takes approximately 5 litres
of milk to produce ½ kg of cheese.
Types of cheeses
There are four main types of cheese with numerous varieties of each.
1. Hard cheese
2. Semi-hard cheese
3. Soft or Cream cheese
4. Blue-vein cheese
Food value
Cheese is a highly concentrated form of food. Fat, protein, mineral salts and vitamins
are all present. Therefore it is an excellent bodybuilding, energy-producing, protective
food.
