The present invention is in the field of dairy technology. It relates to methods of inhibiting Listeria in dairy products, characterized in that the fermentation is carried out using Lactobacillus rhamnosus DSM 32092 or a mutant thereof. The invention also provides use of Lactobacillus rhamnosus DSM 32092 to inhibit Listeria and dairy products comprising Lactobacillus rhamnosus DSM 32092 such as cheeses.

A cheese slurry suitable for topical application on a snack product prior to baking includes natural cheese powder solids, an emulsifier, oil, water, and pregelatinized starch in amounts effective to provide a crispy topping having an appearance of melted cheese uniformly adhered to the outer surface of the baked dough product, and up to 1 percent reducing sugars, polyols, or a combination thereof and substantially no enzyme-modified cheese, buttermilk, whey, maltodextrins, or yeast extract so that the cheese slurry composition is resistant to undesirable browning and burning upon baking.

A composition and method for supplementing food, nutrition, and diet systems with omega-6 to omega-3 balanced oils comprising a synergistic blend of at least two oils. The composition further comprises a synergistic blend of long-chain omega-3 fatty acids as a means to further increase the nutritional value. The composition provides an effective increase in therapeutic and pharmacological properties in nutrition, and retards the rate of oxidation thereof.

Disclosed is a method of making French-type goat cheese whereby the production of acid whey waste is prevented. Goat milk is subjected to microfiltration so as to obtain a whey-reduced milk fraction and a whey fraction. The whey-reduced milk fraction is then subjected to acidification and (typically enzymatic) coagulation, so as produce French-type goat cheese.
