EMC
Create the perfect flavor of aged cheese using Amano specialty enzymes designed for EMC without the expensive and time-consuming aging process.
Overview
Our enzymes take young cheese and develop the flavor components found in mature cheese. We have an extensive portfolio of lipases and proteases that can produce a range of dairy flavors and aromas to help you create your unique signature cheese flavor.
From Cheddar and Swiss to Parmesan and Blue, we can offer tailored solutions for your needs.
Amano Enzyme’s enzymes are used worldwide for EMC production. We have a full range of lipases and proteases to create custom EMC flavor profiles for our customers. We also have a selection of gluten-free enzymes to support dietary needs.
Enzymes used in EMCs lead to shortened production times and increased flavour.
Lipase
Lipases are used to release fatty acids from unripened young cheese and cheese curds, creating the enhanced flavor of mature cheese. Lipase has been reported to shorten the ripening period from the usual several months to a short period (1-7 days) while increasing the flavor 15-30 fold.1)2)
Protease
Proteases also ripen cheese, improve cheese flavor, and enhances umami of EMCs, resulting in a richer cheese taste.
Our enzymes intensify the flavor of EMCs resulting in delicious cheese flavor even when added in small quantities, reducing the amount of cheese used.

Plant-based cheese
Amano's enzymes can help create high-protein plant-based cheeses that stretch and melt beautifully like regular cheese while maintaining its creamy texture and robust flavor.
Plant-based meat
Consumers want plant-based meats, but only if they mimic real meat's taste, texture and look. Amano's specialty enzymes can increase the umami and meaty flavor of plant-based meat alternatives.
