Abstract
The present study was designed to examine the physicochemical and sensory properties in cholesterol‐reduced Camembert cheese made by crosslinked β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD). The composition of cholesterol‐reduced Camembert cheese was similar to the control and the cholesterol reduction reached 90.6%. No difference was found in the total amount of short‐chain free fatty acids between the cholesterol‐reduced cheese and the control at every ripening period. The release of butyric and capric acid mostly contributed to the increase of total amount of short‐chain free fatty acids in both groups. The cholesterol‐reduced cheese produced similar amounts of individual free amino acids to the control in all periods. The scores of all rheological characteristics except for springiness were continuously increased up to 2 weeks’ ripening and decreased thereafter. Mouldy characteristics in both appearance and flavour were increased dramatically through the ripening period in both cholesterol‐reduced and the control cheeses. Based on these results, no significant difference was found in most physicochemical and sensory properties between cholesterol‐reduced Camembert cheese and the control. Therefore, we may find it possible to develop cholesterol‐reduced Camembert cheese using crosslinked β‐cyclodextrin.
