  • Patent number: 5180604
    Abstract: A fermented skim milk retentate is introduced into a mixing tank provided with agitation means. The skim milk retentate is agitated and transferred through a recirculating loop as dry cottage cheese curd and an emulsifying salt are added to the mixing tank. Agitation and recirculation are continued for a period of time sufficient to provide a dispersion of the dry cottage cheese curd and emulsifying salt homogeneously throughout the retentate. Heating of the dispersion is then started by injecting steam into the dispersion as it passes through the recirculating loop. While the temperature of the dispersion is within the range of from about 70.degree. F. to about 150.degree. F., non-fat dry milk is added to the dispersion. Agitation and heating is continued until the dispersion temperature is within the range of from about 140.degree. F. to about 165.degree. F. Xanthan gum, as the first gum of a stabilizing system, is then added to the mixing tank.
