PANEER PROCESSING UNIT

Paneer:

Paneer is a fresh, non-melting cheese commonly used in Indian cuisine. It is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of Savory and sweet dishes. Paneer is known for its mild flavour and unique texture, making it a popular choice in vegetarian and vegan diets.

Paneer Processing:

Paneer processing involves the transformation of milk into paneer. The process is relatively simple and typically includes the following steps:

1. Heating the Milk: Whole milk is heated in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. It is crucial to stir the milk frequently to prevent it from sticking to the bottom and scorching.
2. Adding the Acidic Agent: When the milk is near-boiling, an acidic agent such as lemon juice or vinegar is added. The acid causes the proteins in the milk to coagulate and form curds. Stir gently to ensure uniform curdling.
3. Separating Curds and Whey: As the curds form, they are separated from the liquid whey. This is typically done by straining the mixture through a cheesecloth or muslin cloth placed over a colander. The whey is drained, leaving behind the curds.
4. Pressing the Curds: The collected curds are wrapped in the cheesecloth and pressed to remove excess whey. This can be done by placing weights on top of the wrapped curds or using a press. The duration of pressing influences the firmness of the resulting paneer.
5. Shaping and Cooling: The pressed paneer is shaped into a block or any desired form. It is then allowed to cool and set, enhancing its firm texture. Some processors use moulds or shaping containers for a consistent shape.
6. Cutting into Cubes: Once the paneer has cooled and set, it is cut into cubes or any desired shape. The size of the cubes depends on the intended use in various recipes.
7. Storage: The freshly prepared paneer can be used immediately in dishes, or it can be stored in the refrigerator for a short period. If storing for an extended period, it's advisable to keep it in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
