ABSTRACT
An automatic temperature-programmed procedure for cooking Cottage cheese curd was developed. The procedure worked equally well for small or large curd Cottage cheese. Cutting acidities of 0.60 to 0.62% for 10.25% solids skimmilk were necessary to prevent matting of the curd and to obtain maximum yield of Cottage cheese per pound of skimmilk solids. The rapid cooking procedure was used to produce Cottage cheese which was comparable to Cottage cheese produced using conventional cooking procedures. This method of standardized cooking of Cottage cheese should save labor and improve the uniformity of the product.
