I Made American Cheese

For the people asking. The sodium citrate is a emulsifier so it keeps everything together allowing cheese to melt without oils seperating... sodium hexametaphosphate stabilizes dairy products... the gelatin acts in this like rennet does in the actual cheese he added, it coagulates and thickens the cheese product he's making...

This reminds me of the time i wanted to learn how to make my own yogurt, and found out the first thing i needed was yogurt

The thing that's always bugged me about American cheese is the flavor...so you're telling me if I used a high quality sharp cheddar, I could make a cheese that not only melts well without breaking, but also actually tastes good???

I've never heard of anyone willingly making American cheese. Fascinating.

[brentmacalister]

This is going to educate and troll so many people. I love it!

Emulsifying salts are powerful things. Also: fairly easy to make in the kitchen.

Sodium Citrate can be made by mixing any Citrus juice with a little bit of Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda).

Works great for Queso Blanco.

This is like that dude I knew in high school who spent the whole day trying to solve a complex maths problem and finally ended up with X = X 😂

Fun fact: This is how American cheese was made prior to the 90's when they started substituting a lot off the cheddar off-cuts with whey protein since it's cheaper. This stuff tastes way better and can actually be sold as real cheese. (as opposed to "pasteurized cheese product")

[clareshaughnessy]

Ah, it’s the extra sodium hexamexaphosphate that makes it taste like home!!
I love the fact that one of the ingredients in American ‘cheese’ is cheese

I’m def looking forward to finding the prequel, “How to Make Cheddar Cheese” so I can truly call my homemade American Cheese, homemade...

[BeeHash]

There is a waaay easier method. For every two cups of shredded cheese add about two tablespoons of lemon juice to a teaspoon of baking soda and 80 ml of milk/water. Stir, heat and cheese, stir, let cool - American cheese.

"never tell me kraft cheese is good again"... I would never even say that.
