Abstract

This study investigated the effect of milk composition (cow-, buffalo-, and mixed- milk) on color, textural, rheological, microstructural and sensorial attributes of chhana (Indian cottage cheese). Principle component analysis and cluster analysis were used to correlate the quality attributes. Instrumental properties and sensorial descriptors for chhana that contributed most to the textural and sensory attributes were identified. Chhana containing 100% and 75% cow milk were found to have similar sensory attributes whereas chhana containing 100% and 75% buffalo milk had similar mechanical attributes.
