Abstract

The development of free fatty acids (FFA) and volatile flavour compounds in the Turkish white-brined cheese Beyaz peynir made by using three wild strains of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis was investigated over 90 days. Results showed that production of both FFA and flavour compounds in the control (PK1) and experimental cheeses (MBLL9, MBLL23 and MBL27) was strain dependent. The hydrolysis of milk fat was more evident in the cheese made using Lc. lactis subsp. lactis MBL27. Considering the production of fat breakdown compounds and acidification activities of the strains MBLL23 and MBL27, the combination of these strains could be proposed for the production of white-brined cheese.
