Dairy Fat Replacement in Low-Fat Cheese (LFC): A Review of Successful Technological Interventions

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Book cover Dairy Fat Products and Functionality

Abstract

Worldwide dietary guidelines recommended that not more than 30% of the total daily energy intake should be derived from the dietary fat. Obesity, along with heart diseases such as hypertension and high blood pressure, are often attributed to the consumption of fat rich foods. Cheese prepared from whole milk is high in fat content and a rich source of dietary fat (Drake et al, 1999). Hence, demand for low fat cheese (LFC) has increased globally due to generalized conciousness about consumer health issues. Manufacturing low fat cheese with characteristics similar to that of full fat cheese (i.e. flavour and texture) has been a topic of interest in the cheese industries for many years. Role of fat in cheese is vital as it acts as a filler in the protein network of the cheese besides imparting creaminess, mouth fell and lubricity to the product. Hence, hard, rubbery, off flavoured and poor coloured cheese is produced due to removal of the fat. Several technologies have been proposed to manufacture LFC that has characteristics comparable to those of the full fat cheese. This book chapter reviews several different technological approaches and fat replacers used in producing LFC.
