What is raw milk cheese?

Raw milk cheese, also known as unpasteurised cheese, is cheese made from milk that has not been heated before being made into cheese. The purpose of heating the milk is to render bacteria harmless. Because the milk in raw milk cheese has not been heated, it is therefore called 'raw'.

Listeria bacteria

This means there is a risk of any bacteria such as Listeria in cheese made from raw milk. This bacteria is resistant to the freezer and multiplies at lightning speed in the fridge. Listeria bacteria are just not resistant to temperatures above 70 degrees Celsius, at which point they become harmless.

The fact that a cheese is made from raw milk does not immediately mean that it is infected with the Listeria bacteria, but there is a chance. Only 40 to 60 infections with Listeria bacteria are reported every year. But because the risk is present, pregnant women are advised against eating raw milk cheese.

Why raw milk cheese

Cheeses whose milk has not been treated are more susceptible to seasonality. This gives the cheese a slightly different taste every season, which some people love. Moreover, not all bacteria are bad; there are also good bacteria that can contribute to a healthy body. There are also good bacteria in the cheese itself, which actually protect the cheese from any bad elements.
