Cheese is made using cow, goat, sheep, water buffalo or a blend of these milks. The type of coagulant used depends on the type of cheese desired. For acid cheeses, an acid source such as acetic acid (the acid in vinegar) or gluconodelta-lactone (a mild food acid) is used. During olden days, England was the only place where Cheddar cheeses were made. However, many countries all over the world manufacture Cheddar today. It is a hard and natural cheese that has a slightly crumbly texture if properly cured and if it is too young, the texture is smooth. For your cheddar to age correctly you need to store it in a cool, damp place with plenty of humidity and ventilation. Some people try to use their current refrigerator but the average temperature is about 10 to 15 degrees cooler than a cave. Cheddar cheese is a good source of calcium- one of the most important nutrients for promoting bone health. People who maintain a diet rich in calcium are less likely to develop osteoporosis. The vitamin K in cheddar cheese also plays a valuable role in promoting bone health.
