  • METHOD OF MAKING FRENCH-TYPE GOAT CHEESE
    Publication number: 20220330567
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of making French-type goat cheese whereby the production of acid whey waste is prevented. Goat milk is subjected to microfiltration so as to obtain a whey-reduced milk fraction and a whey fraction.
