Description

The current cheese ordinance defines processed cheese as products made from cheese by melting using heat, too using melting salts. Processed cheese preparations are defined as products made from Cheese and / or processed cheese with the addition of other dairy products or added foods by melting under Application of heat, also with the use of melting salts, are produced. Such processed cheese preparations can, for example, Contain food additives that contain mild and volatile fruit acids, such as mustard or horseradish. In the present description, the terms processed cheese and processed cheese preparations are used in the sense of the cheese ordinance used.

Processed cheese and processed cheese preparations can be stored for a relatively long time and without problems before consumption. They have optimal structural properties for storage, packaging and cutting, so that, for example, thin slices of cheese that retain their shape can be made by slicing.

In addition to processed cheese and processed cheese preparations, there is also natural cheese. This includes fine mushroom cheese, which has a limited shelf life or can be stored and is also extremely brittle and chunky is so that it does not have sufficient cut resistance to cut open having in individual disks. These disadvantages of natural cheese in terms of storage and processing before consumption by melting the natural cheese (noble mushroom cheese)

Eliminate processed cheese or processed cheese preparations, because the action of the melting salt would neutralize the flavoring fatty acids of the natural cheese, resulting in a processed cheese with an unfavorable taste . In addition, there would be an unpleasant salt heat.

The invention is therefore based on the object, natural cheese (noble mushroom cheese) as a commodity before consumption for the To make transport, storage and slicing more suitable and, if possible, that of processed cheese for natural cheese and processed cheese preparations to give existing advantages in terms of transport, storage and processing before consumption.

According to the invention this is achieved essentially in that in the case of a cheese product in block form, the block of processed cheese or processed cheese preparations and at least one stored therein Layer of a natural cheese (noble mushroom cheese).

The natural cheese (noble mushroom cheese) is, so to speak, in the processed cheese The processed cheese preparation is packed or preserved. It is well known that natural cheese (noble mushroom cheese) ripens very quickly. By means of the processed cheese surrounding it in the block according to the invention A pasteurizing effect is achieved and the natural cheese is sealed against air access, whereby the ripening process is stopped or is slowed down considerably. The natural cheese is therefore in one or more smaller units in the processed cheese embedded.

This not only achieves a longer shelf life or shelf life of the natural cheese, but also the disadvantage of wetting, which very often occurs when storing this cheese or trading in this cheese, is reduced by embedding it in processed cheese or processed cheese preparations.

In addition, the cheese product according to the invention can be used because of the good cut resistance of the processed cheese or the processed cheese preparations Cut well into slices and show smooth cut surfaces, whereby the natural cheese will largely crumble is avoided. Such a cheese product brings a pleasing, purchase-stimulating look to the customer at the cheese counter, whereby the stored layers of natural cheese remain, so to speak, rich in contrast and thus the suitability of the cheese product / as i andelsware or exhibition object is improved.

In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention ? Cheese product according to the embedded layer of natural i cheese (blue cheese) surrounded on all sides by the mass of the processed cheese or ■ cheese preparation, so that is, the embedded layer of natural cheese at any point located on the outer surface of the cheese block. The outside of the cheese block is always formed by processed cheese or processed cheese preparation ... The advantages explained above are hereby; of the cheese product according to the invention is further improved.

Advantageously, several layers of natural cheese can be used (Edelpilzkäse) be stored in the cheese block, with layers of processed cheese between these natural cheese layers or processed cheese preparation are arranged. This also achieves the advantages explained above, in particular for larger blocks of cheese. ■

An exemplary embodiment is described below with reference to the drawing, which is partially diagrammatic in an oblique view represents a cut block of the cheese product according to the invention.

The block 1 of the cheese product has an essentially cylindrical shape (circular cylinder or cylinder with a different cross-section). The block 1 consists essentially of alternating layers of processed cheese or processed cheese preparations 2 and natural cheese (noble mushroom cheese) 3 Between two layers of natural cheese (noble mushroom cheese) so there are layers 2b of processed cheese or processed cheese preparation. You can also use just one layer of natural cheese 3 be provided, which is then covered on its top and bottom by processed cheese or processed cheese preparation 2.

As the exemplary embodiment shows, the layers of natural cheese 3 are thereby made from processed cheese or processed cheese preparation on all sides 2, that on the outer circumference of the natural cheese layers 3, an annular casing 2a made of processed cheese or processed cheese preparation is provided.

The layer or layers of natural cheese 3 is or are arranged essentially coaxially to the cylindrical shape of the block 1, wherein because of the outer coating layer 2a made of processed cheese or processed cheese preparation, the layer or layers Natural cheese 3 are formed by one or more slices of natural cheese that are in the processed cheese or the processed cheese preparation are embedded. The disks 3 thus have smaller circumferential dimensions than the outer surface of the cylinder of the block 1.

The cheese product according to the invention can be produced in the following way:

A suitable processed cheese or a processed cheese preparation is obtained in the conventional processed cheese process and fed through an automatic filling machine in strokes into a cylinder lined with tinfoil

form filled. After filling of the first stroke of the processed cheese or natural cheese Schmelzkäsezubereitu ng a disk (blue cheese) is placed, which was obtained from a loaf of natural cheese by cutting a disk. Then another stroke of processed cheese or processed cheese preparation is poured into the mold, the inserted slice of natural cheese being covered on top and on the sides to form a layer 2b and the outer casing 2a of processed cheese. The filling and placing process described is repeated until the mold is filled. A layer of processed cheese or processed cheese preparation 2 lies on the top. After cooling, a solid cheese product results in block form with the advantageous properties described above with regard to handling before consumption.

In addition, in the cheese product according to the invention the natural cheese (noble mushroom cheese), which, depending on the age, is sometimes peculiar to the taste of the consumer Genouimen sharpness by embedding in the processed cheese preparation, However, the other flavor-forming acids in natural cheese (noble mushroom cheese) are fully preserved.
