- Demonstrate some of the basic concepts of protein cookery.
Describe the distinguishing sensory properties of each of the following dairy products.
| Dairy Product | Components/Characteristics | Sensory Observations Made in Lab |
|---|---|---|
| Skim milk | 0–0.5% fat | |
| Low-fat milk | 0.5–1% fat | |
| Reduced fat milk | 1–2% fat | |
| Whole milk | 3.25% fat | |
| Half & Half | 10–12% fat | |
| Whipping cream — heavy | 36–40% fat | |
| Solid Fat | ||
| Butter | 80% milk fat | |
| Margarine | 80% vegetable fat | |
| Canned and Processed | ||
| Evaporated milk | 7.5% protein “concentrated milk” | |
| Sweetened condensed milk | 8.5% protein + 44% sugar added | |
| Nonfat dry milk | 0–0.5% fat, water removed | |
| Cultured | ||
| Yogurt | 0–3.5% fat, varies by type | |
| Kefir | Cultured by yeast & bacteria making it practically lactose-free | |
| Buttermilk | 0–1% fat, cultured | |
| Sour Cream | 18–20% fat, cultured |

Effects of Dry Heat on Mild, Extra Sharp, and Process Cheddar Cheeses
Prepare each of the dishes according to the recipes below, using mild, sharp, and process Cheddar cheeses. Weigh cheese for each recipe.
Grilled Cheese
Use 2 slices of cheese for each sandwich: mild, extra-sharp, or process Cheddar cheese
- Taste unheated cheese samples and record observations in the chart below.
- Place 1.5-2 slices of cheese between two pieces of bread.
- Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a saute pan over medium-low heat.
- Press the sandwich slightly and place it in the saute pan. Cook until golden on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Turn, and cook until the other side is golden and the cheese melts, 3 to 5 more minutes.
- Record observations in the chart.
