Abstract

Acid and heat coagulated types of cheese such as Ricotta, Mitzithra, and Galotiri as well as cottage cheese are produced from milk and/or whey starting materials, pasteurizing the starting materials followed by cooling and membrane filtration of the starting materials to form a retentate, whereafter the retentate is subjected to a heating and an acidification under pressure, and then to a sudden pressure drop, followed by cooling, agitation, and packaging, and finally to a secondary cooling, wherein the retentate is initially continuously heated to the precipitation temperature and then coagulant is added continuously under pressure to acidification to form a mixture, and the mixture is subjected to a sudden drop of pressure.
