Cheese is a dairy product produced in wide ranges of flavors, textures,
and forms by coagulation of the milk protein casein. It comprises
proteins and fat from milk, usually the milk of cows, buffalo, goats, or
sheep. During production, milk is usually acidified and the enzymes of
either rennet or bacterial enzymes with similar activity are added to
cause the casein to coagulate. The solid curds are then separated from
the liquid whey and pressed into finished cheese.
Some cheeses have aromatic molds on the rind, the outer layer, or throughout.
