Expert Solution
Step 1 Introduction

Cheese was first introduced as a way of preserving the nutrients of milk. It is the fresh product obtained after coagulation of milk and whey separation. Apart from milk, cream buttermilk or a mixture can also be used. It is mainly the product of selective concentration of milk.

Thousands of cheese varieties have evolved that are characteristic of different regions of the world.
