By JETT IE STEEN
Battalion Reporter
If your taste buds have a craving
for some south-of-the-border
cuisine, you’re in luck, if you also
like cheese.
The Dairy Science Club is carry
ing on a fund-raising project it
began in 1971 — making and selling
jalapeno cheese.
In the creamery at Texas A&M,
gallon jugs of chopped jalapenos sit
near the 120 pounds of cheese that
is melted down each week to be
combined with the peppers.
With a donation of 400 pounds of
natural process colby and cheddar
cheese from the L.D. Schrieber
Cheese Company of Missouri, the
club produces about four batches of
the jalapeno cheese every semester.
“We do have to buy about 200
pounds of cheese each semester
from a company in Houston to fill all
of our orders,” said Greg Batts,
member in charge of the cheese
making.
The club gets the jalapenos from
local grocers.
“We never quite know how many
jalapenos to put in because some say
the cheese is too hot and some say
it’s not hot enough,” Batts said. He
said the number depends on the
temperament of the cheese making
crew of the day.
The cheese must first be cut and
melted in a gallon vat at the cream
ery. “We are using a half-and-half
mix of colby and cheddar cheese this
year,” said Dr. Ron Richter, adviser
for the group.
Phosphates must then be added
as emulsifiers to keep the fat from
separating in the cheese and citrate
is added as a preservative.
Two gallons of jalapenos and a bit
of salt are added give the spicy Mex
ican flavor as the cheese melts to a
smooth consistency.
The viscous liquid is then poured
into 2-pound bags and set in the
boxes which act as molds for the
cheese. One batch of cheese usually
accounts for 60 2-pound boxes of the
hot stuff
Batts said that it took a while for
sales to catch on, but that this year
it’s selling like hotcakes. “We hardly
get one batch made before it is all
sold. We made 120 pounds of it on
Monday and it was all gone by
Thursday. ”
The cheese, which takes about
three and a half hours to make, is
sold for $4 a 2-pound box.
