As raw material milk-and-vegetable mixture containing milk and soy paste concentrate with dry matter content of 20-25 % in amount of 8-15 % based on raw materials is used. Milk-and-vegetable mixture is preliminary fermented by addition of ferment containing Streptococcus lactis and Lactobacillus acidophilus in amount of 0.05-0.1 % and in ratio of 1:0.5 and calcium chloride in amount of 0.01-0.02 % based on mixture mass. Fermentation is carried out at 7-12°C for 10-14 hours; pasteurization is carried out at 90-95°C for 3-5 min; and milky whey having acidity of 150-250°T is used in amount of 8-15 %. After clot formation whey separation, salting, and cheese mass formation are carried out.

EFFECT: cheese of increased nutrition and biological value; decreased raw material consumption; accelerated and simplified technological process.
