Product Profile of Emmental Cheese With Holes
Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation offers Amul Emmental Cheese with holes. As opposed to the commonly available processed cheddar cheese, Emmental is actually a `live` cheese, i.e. it has live bacteria, which continue the ripening process, even after the cheese is packed and placed on the retail shelves. However, it is a 100% vegetarian-coagulating enzyme.
One of the most striking features of Emmental is the `holes` or the `eyes`, as they are popularly called. Amul Emmental Cheese has a sweet-dry flavour and hazelnut aroma. This cheese is normally available in the form of a wheel, having convex edges and is covered with a dry-hard rind that is golden-yellow in colour. Its composition is Moisture 43%, Fat 46%, Salt 1.5%.
