Cheddar cheese powder

Post by wkw » Tue Feb 22, 2022 15:03

Has anyone ever used cheese powder in a sausage recipe?
I am thinking about using it in a cheddar onion recipe that I want to work up.

Thanks

I've seen cheese powder in emulsified wiener style products, but have never tried them or made anything with cheese powder. I also don't have any recipes. Keep in mind that cheese contains a fair amount of salt, so you have to work that in. I would start a test batch with no more than 5%, and go from there. When adding shredded or cubed cheese the amount is usually 10%.

I also was thinking 5 or 6 % facturing in the moisture difference from fresh cheese.
