This practical guide offers, in very concrete terms, recipes for a dozen iconic cheeses from this large family:

Tomme grise, Trappist, Raclette, Cheddar, Gruyère style…Cheesemaking technologist and instructor by profession, equally expert in the artisanal and industrial arenas, the author describes the precise steps to follow for each style, with adaptations and options throughout the process, including how to resolve occasional problems, while also including different configurations possible for equipment and tools.

Author:

Sébastien Roustel is a cheese technology expert at CHR-Hansen.

Prior to this he directed the research and development service at the Enilbio at Poligny.

He also wrote the guide “Soft Paste Cheese, Step-by-Step”, published in this same collection.

• How to bring a soft curd with a bloomy mold rind to its optimum taste?
• How to get a creamy layer under the rind?
• When is it more appropriate to use static or ventilated refrigeration?
• How to inoculate a ripening cellar?
• How to make a smear?

One of a kind, sometimes reference technical work and sometimes field work, this guide provides concrete and pragmatic answers for all the big cheese families.

Written in simple language and accessible, it thus alternates general scientific knowledge, practical tips, implementation diagrams, testimonials from professionals, diagnostics and defect resolution sheets.

To those who want to embark on ripening, it will give the keys to understanding and reaction.

To those who already practice this art where the sense of the observation is preponderant, it will bring new insights and will allow them to perfect their practice.
