Steve Jenkins‚ a Master Cheesemonger at Fairway Market. (Cheese) Bacteria‚ or starter cultures‚ control the flavor‚ hardness‚ type‚ and many more aspects of cheese. The two main strands of bacteria involved in cheese making are Lactococcus and Lactobacillus‚ which ferment sugars found in the milk. Humans have learned to manipulate bacteria and the fermentation process to produce different types of cheese such as Swiss‚ Limburger‚ and Cheddar. The earliest concrete evidence of cheese was found in Egypt

Fermentation Fermentation is a natural process that has been going on in nature since before humans existed. For centuries we have been practicing food fermentation‚ knowingly or unknowingly. Every food culture in the world throughout history has been using fermentation in their food in some way. Bread making originated in Egypt 3500 years ago. Fermented drinks were being produced and consumed in Babylon(now Iraq) 7000 years ago. China is thought to be the birth place of fermented vegetables. A

8. Microorganisms help reduce atmospheric nitrogen and transform it to ammonia important for agriculture. 9. The microbes that normally live in association with humans on the various surfaces of the body (called the normal flora)‚ such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium‚ are known to protect their hosts from infections and otherwise promote nutrition and health. 10. Microorganisms play a central role in recombinant DNA technology and genetic engineering. Important tools of biotechnology are

much more. The process of making yogurt also uses fermentation. During this process milk solids are usually added to make yogurt with a custardlike consistency. Concentrated sterilized milk is then inoculated with Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus or a lactose fermenting yeast which is then incubated at about 43° to 44°C for four to five hours until curd forms. Yogurt is known and consumed in almost all parts of he world and different methods are used in making it. One of the
