Question

Rennet is used for the preparation of which dairy product?

A.

Curd

B.

Ghee

C.

Cheese

D.

Cream

Correct option is C


What is Rennet?
✅ Rennet is a complex of enzymes, mainly rennin (chymosin), obtained from the stomach of ruminant animals.
It is specifically used to coagulate milk, causing it to separate into:
Curds (solid) → used in cheese making
Whey (liquid)
Cheese production relies heavily on rennet to form a proper texture.
Why Other Options Are Incorrect:
❌ Curd – Made by bacterial fermentation (e.g., Lactobacillus), not rennet.
❌ Ghee – Made by boiling butter to remove moisture.
❌ Cream – Separated from milk by centrifugation or settling.
