In the process, pressing of the curd is carried out for about 2 to 4 hours at 80.degree. F. to 130.degree. F., salting of the curd is carried out in a super saturated salt brine in excess of 85% salinity reading for 30 minutes to 4 hours at about 80.degree. to 130.degree. F. and curing is carried out by aging the curd for about 6 to 24 hours and thereafter force drying the curd with high velocity air at a temperature of about 90.degree. to 300.degree.
