ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A process is described for the preparation of a natural cheese product having an intensified American cheese flavour. The American cheese flavour appears, at least in part, to be as a result of the free C2 to C10 fatty acid content of the cheese product. Cheese products having the intensified American cheese flavour possess a C2 to C10 fatty acid content at least about 10 times the C2- C10 fatty acid content of conventional aged American-type cheeses. The process comprises providing a medium containing milk protein and fat, setting the medium to provide a coagulum, cutting the coagulum to provide curd particles and whey, separating said curd particles from said whey, mixing said curd particles with enzyme and curing said curd particles at a temperature above about 50°F for a period of time sufficient to provide a total free percent by weight and a free C4 fatty acid content of at least about 0.32 percent by weight, said lipolytic enzyme being selected from enzyme extracted from the throat tissue of calves, lambs and kids and said proteolytic enzyme is an exopeptidase having high pro- teolytic activity but only minor diastatic action. The cheese product having the highly intensified flavour is particularly useful for mixing with other food products such as unaged cheeses and bakery products in order to impart an American cheese flavour to such products.
