HISTORY
• Invented in 1791 by Marie Harel, a farmer from Normandy
• Origin of the cheese known today as Camembert is more likely to rest with the beginnings of the industrialization of the cheese-making process at the end of the 19th century
• Certification : protected designation of origin in 1992 // AOC in 1983

Presentation of CAMEMBERT
• Ripened cheese made from unpasteurized cow's milk
• 2,2 liters of milk are necessary to produce 1 camembert
• The time necessary for obtaining a fully ripened cheese is 30 to 35 days.

Chemical composition • It gets its characteristic flavor from many
naturally occurring chemical substances, including ammonia, succinic acid and sodium chloride

PRODUCTION STEP 0Preparation of the milk (day 1)
• Reception of the milk and tests (acidity, test Listéria…)
• Standardization of the fat content (partial skinning)
- 28 gr Fat/L to have a camembert with 45% of fat.
• Other additions before making the curd
• Primary ripening of the milk (16 to 20 hours)

PRODUCTION STEP 1Curdling (day 2)
Solidify the milk
• Coagulation in vats at 32° or 35°Fundamental process made generally with rennet

PRODUCTION STEP 2Draining (day 2)
• 80 % of the water contained in the curd wich is extracted• The biological factor• The mechanical factor

PRODUCTION STEP 3Molding (day 2)
• Made at 30°C to favorise the draining

PRODUCTION STEP 4Removal from the molt and Salting (day 3)
• Camembert are salted on both faces and circumference• The salting allows:- The selection of microorganism necessary for the maturing of the Camembert.- It completes the draining of the curd.- It gives flavour to the cheese. • Percentage of salt in a Camembert is from 1,80 to 2 %.

PRODUCTION STEP 5Maturing (day 4 to day 15)
• Maturing in drying store with reversal (temperature between 10 and 12°C)• Packaging• Maturing in box in cellar
•
3 days 7 days 15 days

The Controls• To receive the AOC, a Norman camembert should
respect several norms. For instance :• During the whole process, the milk temperature
should not rise over 37 °C. No milk powder, concentred milk, or lactic proteins should be added to that camembert
• The moulding should be done with a ladle in at least four times. The size of the laddle should be approximately the same as the size of the mould.
• The salt should only be a "dry" one • At least 45% fat content in a camembert.• At least 115g of dry matter in a camembert.
