There are several brands of cheddar cheese.

Common Cheese ~ (2007-09-22 16: 34: 06) Label: I record useful information about wealth and life. Category: Beauty and Diet Source:/There are so many kinds of cheese. It is roughly estimated that there are more than 2000 kinds. It is not so easy to know in detail. Hehe, I feel dizzy after reading it. Then let's talk about some cheeses that are used more in baking.

1, cream cheese

This is an immature full-fat cheese. After processing, its fat content can exceed 50%, the texture is fine and the taste is soft. Because there is no brewing process, it is also a kind of "fresh cheese". The difference is that this cheese is also mixed with cream or a mixture of cream and milk, so it is called cream cheese; ; According to the hardness of the product itself and the proportion of milk fat, it can be subdivided into various categories, but the manufacturing method is the same. Fresh cheese and cream cheese are very easy to absorb other flavors and deteriorate after opening, so eat them as soon as possible. Cream cheese is an indispensable and important material in cheesecake. Besides being used as a cooking material, it is best to taste its original flavor, which can be matched with jam, honey, fruit or various western herbs and onions.

Usually, cream cheese used to make cheesecakes is a packaged product. The texture of cream cheese looks a bit like cream, but it is lighter in color and smells very different.

2. Peng Mascapone

Matzka Peng (or Mascapone) cheese is Italian cream cheese, which originated in Lombardy, Italy. It is a kind of "fresh cheese" formed by fermenting fresh milk and then removing some water. Its solid content is 80% of cheese fat. The hardness is between fresh cream and cream cheese (also called condensed cream cheese), which is slightly sweet and rich in taste. Because it has not undergone any brewing or ripening process, it still retains the white color and the fragrance of fresh milk, slightly sweet, and has a rich taste like cream, especially when Masca Peng Yue is fresh, the better the taste.

Mascapone is the main ingredient of Italian dim sum. Matzka Peng is famous for using Matzka Peng with special aroma when making tiramisu, while Matzka Peng cheese is much more expensive than ordinary cheese cream.

Is there anyone to replace Peng?

Claire's little stack has her own tried methods for this, so I'll extract them.

There are several ways to replace Peng:

Stir well with whey cheese or cottage cheese.

Put 8 ounces of soft cream cheese +3 tablespoons sour cream yogurt +2 tablespoons heavy cream. Send these three ingredients to use.

Add 6 ounces of soft cream cheese+1/4 cups of butter to send the substitute.

Because Peng belongs to a triple cream cheese, cows who want to extract this cheese are fed with special flowers and herbs, so Peng cheese has a special fragrance and sweetness. I haven't tried any of the above alternatives. I think these substitutes are more suitable for use when you can't buy Peng, otherwise you will lose the taste of the original recipe.

3.mozzarella cheese

I believe everyone is familiar with this. This is cheese spread on pizza.

Mozzarella cheese is a mild cheese, produced in Naples, Campania, Italy. In the early years, it was made from buffalo milk grown in the southwest of Naples, and now it can also be made from ordinary milk. However, compared with buffalo products, it lacks the sweetness and depth of buffalo products in taste. The finished product is light yellow in color and contains 50% milk fat.

Mazurila is called "the flower of cheese" in Italy, because its texture is moist and smooth, which is very suitable for making cakes, and dishes with tomatoes and olive oil are the icing on the cake. In contrast, the Mazulila produced in the United States is much inferior and disappointing. It can only be made into shredded noodles and used as pizza cheese, so it is often called "pizza cheese".

Hehe, I believe you can appreciate some styles of cheese when you see this. Mazulila, which has always been sought after by us, is not only the top cheese, but also something lacking in taste among the Italian population. Of course, I'm talking about Mozzarella & Mozzarella；; , all Pizza Hut!

The mozzarella in the picture is packed in 10KG, and there are also 5KG at the wholesale price of 170 yuan, which is generally used for shaving.

The prices of various brands of shredded mozzarella pork in small packages sold in supermarkets vary from 200 grams to more than 20 yuan in 40 yuan.

4. Cheddar cheese

Also known as cheddar cheese and cheddar cheese, its name comes from Cheddar County, England in16th century. It is a hard full-fat milk cheese produced in Cheddar, Moset, England, with a long history. The color is white or golden yellow, the texture is delicate, the taste is soft, and it contains 45% milk fat. Now it has spread widely in many parts of the world, especially in the United States. Some people even call it "American cheese" because the United States has high output and many consumers. It is made of whole milk, which is one of the most basic cheeses. It is also widely used because it can replace almost all cheeses in the cooking process, from pouring juice to cheese sauce to baking.

There are many kinds of cheddar cheese, but at present I have seen two kinds in Metro, one is yellow cheddar and the other is blue cheddar.

Huang Cheddar, there is another story. Yellow cheddar, also called "mouse cheese", is the general name of American cheese (because Americans love it). This is raw yellow cheese, which has been aged for at least a year. Probably because "mouse" didn't listen well twice, it was difficult to find the label of mouse cheese in the supermarket and replaced it with yellow cheddar cheese.

The difference between blue cheddar and ordinary cheddar cheese is that it adds blue cheese and has a unique flavor. As for the usage, it is no different from ordinary cheda.

5. Bi Ran cheese Brie cheese

One of the most famous cheeses in France, named after it is produced in Bi Ran, a central province of France. There are many varieties, the general color is from pale white to pale yellow, soft and salty, and the milk is rich. It is disc-shaped, with a diameter of 18-35cm and a weight of 1.5-2kg, and contains 45% milk fat. Bi Ran cheese was first made in17th century. In1918th, it was called "the king of cheese" and was famous all over the world. The best way to preserve Bi Ran cheese is to put a piece of clean cardboard on the cutting surface (this will stop the cheese from flowing) and then store it in a cool place or refrigerator.

I saw it on the subway. It's really a big piece. Of course, the price is really high. It is estimated that only big hotels will buy it.

6.parmesan cheese

An Italian hard cheese, after years of aging and drying, is yellowish in color and has a strong fruit flavor. In general supermarkets, there are boxes or cans of powdered Parmesan cheese for sale. Parmesan cheese has a wide range of uses, not only can be ground into bread crumbs, but also can be used as a condiment for pasta, soup and other dishes, and can also be made into exquisite sweets. Italians often eat large pieces of Parmesan cheese with figs and pears, or break it into small pieces as an aperitif. Because of its long ripening time, it is easier to be digested and absorbed by human body than other cheeses, and now it has become one of the best cheese varieties in the world.

Metro has boxed Parmesan cheese and canned Parmesan pure cheese powder. The price of canned cheese powder is about 16 ~ 17 yuan.

Hehe, I interrupted. I went to Pizza Hut for dinner yesterday. My friend ordered a spaghetti with black pepper and it was served. The waiter also brought a seasoning tray with black pepper in hot sauce and a can of Parmesan cheese powder, but my friend really didn't like the taste of cheese, so I didn't put it in. Hehe, I sprinkled some on the red wine roasted snail, and it tasted good.

7. Emmental cheese

A famous German cheese, named after its place of origin. It contains 48% milk fat and weighs 70-85 kg. This kind of fruit has a strong fragrance and a spicy taste.

8. Blue cheese Blue cheese

Usually made of milk, it has the markings caused by mold, so it has a unique flavor.

Because these two kinds of cheese are very famous flavor cheeses, they are not used much in the common west point baking. After all, the special taste is not acceptable to everyone. Speaking of it, it's because I've seen these two kinds in Metro, hehe, I'm sorry, I haven't bought them, and I haven't seen my friends buy them, so I can't provide photos.

9. Camembert Cheese Camembert Cheese

This is the most famous cheese named after a place name. Camembert is the lightest cheese and belongs to soft cheese with flower skin. Soft to the touch, like a fresh cake, because it melts easily at high temperature, it is suitable for cooking and can also be eaten directly with wine.

There is also a legend about this kind of cheese, which is said to have been invented by a Camembert cheese man named Mary Hagrid. It is said that during the period of 1790 and 10, a priest named Charles Jean Bonfoster spent the night at Bob Mancel's farm of Marie Harger's family. In return, the priest told her the secret of making Camembert cheese.
