“Queijo prato” (a typical kind of Brazilian cheese for sandwich)
Soft cheese, similar to the Danish cheese Danbo. It is one of the most popular cheeses in Brazil, and was introduced by Danish immigrants in the Minas Gerais state. It is a cheese of cooked mass, yellow-gold color, of semi-hard consistency, without glances. Produced using lactic cultures ("ferments") that impart aroma, characteristic texture and ease of melting when heated. To achieve this flavor and texture the cheese plate is matured or "cured" for 25 to 30 days in a cold room at 10 ° C. It is ideal for the preparation of snacks and sandwiches and to gratin pasta in the oven.
Mozzarella Cheese
Mozzarella cheese is the most produced in Brazil and in the world. Its elastic consistency is due to the filament process in which the fresh mass is heated and stretched several times. Its higher acidity (lower pH) is one of the factors that makes it so easy to melt. To achieve this acidity, specific lactic ferments are used for this type of cheese, because in addition to acidity, they confer a distinct flavor and aroma to the final product.
Parmesan Cheese
It is a cheese of hard mass, spicy flavor and very characteristic aroma. They have a dark yellow, hard and oily skin. Parmesan is made from partially skimmed cow's milk. In the production, thermophilic ferments are used that are still added at the beginning of the manufacture for pre-maturation of the milk. Throughout the process, after passing through the brine, it is dried and cured for more than 6 months in a chamber at 16 ° C to achieve desired texture and aroma. With maturation, the cheeses get more striking and complex flavors. The texture, over time, becomes more granular and can give a crispy sensation as of small crystals (called crystals of tyrosine, which occur in more mature cheeses).
Half-matured Minas Cheese
It is a "half-cure" cheese, typical of the state of Minas Gerais. The cheese undergoes a maturation of about 25 days, at a temperature of 8 to 10 ° C, acquiring a slightly dry and firm consistency. It is widely used in the manufacture of Minas Gerais cheese bread. It is made with specially selected mesophilic ferments for this type of cheese, which gives it the characteristic aroma and characteristic flavor.
Fresh Minas Cheese
The name says it all: original from Minas Gerais State, it is a fresh cheese, that is, that does not go through a maturation or aging period. Hence comes the mild flavor, much appreciated to accompany desserts.
Made from pasteurized milk, it presents lightness promoted by the freshness of the slight natural acidity of the milk, combined with the salty balance, smoother than the other cheeses.
It is a cheese with high moisture content, so its validity is reduced, and should be consumed in a brief time.
