Abstract
Soyabean (Glycine max (L) ) cheese analog was produced from soymilk using glacial acetic acid precipitation or coagulation of the milk protein. The unit operations involved in the production of the cheese analog from soyabean seeds include: screening, soaking, blanching, milling, filtering, warming, acidifying, harvesting the curd, salting at 20g/1kg, pressing, waxing and aging. The cheese analog was chemically evaluated according to standard methods. The product showed 41.78% moisture, 36.47% protein, 6.50% fat, 10.38% Ash, 4.87% carbohydrate, 0.093% potassium, 0.402% sodium, 0.233% calcium, 0.036% phosphorus. The protein, fat, and moisture levels of the cheese analog were within the range of similar conventional cheeses. The microbial evaluation showed that 10 colonies of organisms were present in 101 dilutions which is a very considerable number. The heat treatment, acid added and even the salt added showed that the organisms present are not pathogenic. The economic evaluation of the cheese analog showed that it could be a cheap source of protein with real or perceived health benefits such as low levels of fat and cholesterol. ...
