Q » What is rennet and where does it come from?
30 Oct, 2025
A » Rennet is a complex set of enzymes used in cheese-making to curdle milk, separating it into solids (curds) and liquid (whey). Traditionally, rennet is sourced from the stomach lining of ruminant animals, such as calves. However, vegetarian and microbial alternatives are also available, derived from plant sources or cultured bacteria. Each type of rennet can impact the texture and flavor of the cheese produced.
