자주 묻는 질문
Cheesemaking is one of the oldest forms of food preservation known to humanity, essentially serving as a culinary puzzle to make fresh milk last for years. Legend suggests it began as an accident when a merchant stored milk in a sheep's stomach pouch, where heat and natural enzymes caused it to separate into curds and whey. This ancient practice has evolved into a global obsession with over 1,000 recognized varieties today.
Archaeologists have uncovered fascinating evidence of cheese's long history, including a 3,200-year-old solidified white mass found in an ancient Egyptian tomb. This discovery highlights that cheese has been a part of human history for millennia, far predating modern culinary practices. Such findings emphasize that cheese is much more than a simple snack; it is a treasury of human ingenuity and ancient food preservation techniques.
Despite the incredible diversity of over 1,000 cheese varieties available today, the process almost always starts with just four basic ingredients: milk, salt, bacteria, and rennet. Rennet is a crucial enzyme that kickstarts the transformation of milk into cheese. By combining these simple elements, cheesemakers can create a vast array of textures and flavors, ranging from fresh varieties to those aged for several years on wooden shelves.
