Introduction
In this application brief, a thirteen-minute pasting profile utilizing grated cheese is presented utilizing a Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA) to assess melt characteristics in processed food. Combining speed, precision, flexibility and automation, the RVA is a unique tool for product development, quality and process control and quality assurance. The melt characteristics of grated cheese are measured in the RVA in the presence of a small amount of propylene glycol. The RVA parameters including temperature at melting, minimum viscosity and temperature at solidification are good indicators of the meltability of a processed cheese sample.
