It is then removed to a heating room and held at progressively higher temperatures, finally reaching 65 \u00b0F with a relative humidity of 85 to 90 percent, for several weeks, during which time small holes, or so-called eyes, form.

(1) Brick cheese is the food prepared from dairy ingredients and other ingredients specified in this section by the procedure set forth in paragraph (a)(3) of this section, or by any other procedure which produces a finished cheese having the same physical and chemical properties. The minimum milkfat content is 50 percent by weight of the solids and the maximum moisture content is 44 percent by weight, as determined by the methods described in \u00a7 133.5. If the dairy ingredients used are not pasteurized, the cheese is cured at a temperature of not less than 35 \u00b0F for at least 60 days.\n\n(2) If pasteurized dairy ingredients are used, the phenol equivalent value of 0.25 gram of brick cheese is not more than 5 micrograms as determined by the method described in \u00a7 133.5.\n\n(3) One or more of the dairy ingredients specified in paragraph (b)(1) of this section is brought to a temperature of about 88 \u00b0F and subjected to the action of a lactic acid-producing bacterial culture. One or more of the clotting enzymes specified in paragraph (b)(2) of this section is added to set the dairy ingredients to a semisolid mass. The mass is cut into cubes with sides approximately \n 3/8  inch long, and stirred and heated so that the temperature rises slowly to about 96 \u00b0F. The stirring is continued until the curd is sufficiently firm. Part of the whey is then removed, and the mixture diluted with water or salt brine to control the acidity. The curd is transferred to forms, and drained. During drainage it is pressed and turned. After drainage the curd is salted, and the biological curing agents characteristic of brick cheese are applied to the surface. The cheese is then cured to develop the characteristics of brick cheese. One or more of the other optional ingredients specified in paragraph (b)(3) of this section may be added during the procedure.\n\n(b)  Optional ingredients.  The following safe and suitable ingredients may be used:\n\n(1)  Dairy ingredients.  Milk, nonfat milk, or cream, as defined in \u00a7 133.3, used alone or in combination.\n\n(2)  Clotting enzymes.  Rennet and/or other clotting enzymes of animal, plant, or microbial origin.\n\n(3)  Other optional ingredients.

The minimum milkfat content is 45 percent by weight of the solids and the maximum moisture content is 41 percent by weight, as determined by the methods described in \u00a7 133.5. The dairy ingredients used may be pasteurized. Samsoe cheese is cured at not less than 35 \u00b0F for at least 60 days.\n\n(2) If pasteurized dairy ingredients are used, the phenol equivalent value of 0.25 gram of samsoe cheese is not more than 3 micrograms as determined by the method described in \u00a7 133.5.\n\n(3) One or more of the dairy ingredients specified in paragraph (b)(1) of this section may be warmed and is subjected to the action of a lactic acid-producing bacterial culture. One or more of the clotting enzymes specified in paragraph (b)(2) of this section is added to set the dairy ingredients to a semisolid mass. After coagulation the mass is cut into small cube-shaped pieces with sides approximately three-eighths inch (1 centimeter). The mass is stirred and heated to about 102 \u00b0F, and so handled by further stirring, heating, dilution with water, and salting as to promote and regulate the separation of curd and whey. When the desired curd is obtained, it is transferred to forms permitting drainage of whey. During drainage, the curd is pressed. After drainage, the curd is removed from the forms and is further salted by immersing in a concentrated salt solution for about 3 days. The curd is then cured at a temperature of from 60\u00b0 to 70 \u00b0F for 3 to 5 weeks to obtain the desired eye formation. Further curing is conducted at a lower temperature. One or more of the other optional ingredients specified in paragraph (b)(3) of this section may be added during the procedure.\n\n(b)  Optional ingredients.  The following safe and suitable ingredients may be used:\n\n(1)  Dairy ingredients.  Milk, nonfat milk, or cream, as defined in \u00a7 133.3, used alone or in combination.\n\n(2)  Clotting enzymes.  Rennet and/or other clotting enzymes of animal, plant, or microbial origin.\n\n(3)  Other optional ingredients.  (i) Coloring.\n\n(ii) Calcium chloride in an amount not more than 0.02 percent (calculated as anhydrous calcium chloride) by weight of the dairy ingredients, used as a coagulation aid.\n\n(iii) Enzymes of animal, plant, or microbial origin, used in curing or flavor development.\n\n(iv) Antimycotic agents, applied to the surface of slices or cuts in consumer-sized packages.\n\n(c)  Nomenclature.

(1) Swiss cheese, emmentaler cheese, is the food prepared by the procedure set forth in paragraph (a)(3) of this section, or by any other procedure which produces a finished cheese having the same physical and chemical properties. It has holes or eyes developed throughout the cheese. The minimum milkfat content is 43 percent by weight of the solids and the maximum moisture content is 41 percent by weight, as determined by the methods described in \u00a7 133.5. The dairy ingredients used may be pasteurized. Swiss cheese is at least 60 days old.\n\n(2) If pasteurized dairy ingredients are used, the phenol equivalent value of 0.25 gram of swiss cheese is not more than 3 micrograms as determined by the method described in \u00a7 133.5.\n\n(3) One or more of the dairy ingredients specified in paragraph (b)(1) of this section may be bleached, warmed, or treated with hydrogen peroxide/catalase, and is subjected to the action of lactic acid-producing and propionic acid-producing bacterial cultures. One or more of the clotting enzymes specified in paragraph (b)(2) of this section is added to set the dairy ingredients to a semisolid mass. The mass is cut into particles similar in size to wheat kernels. For about 30 minutes the particles are alternately stirred and allowed to settle. The temperature is raised to about 126 \u00b0F. Stirring is continued until the curd becomes firm. The acidity of the whey at this point, calculated as lactic acid, does not exceed 0.13 percent. The curd is transferred to hoops or forms and pressed until the desired shape and firmness are obtained. The cheese is then salted by immersing it in a saturated salt solution for about 3 days. It is then held at a temperature of about 50\u00b0 to 60 \u00b0F. for a period of 5 to 10 days, after which it is held at a temperature of about 75 \u00b0F. until it is approximately 30 days old, or until the so-called eyes form. Salt, or a solution of salt in water, is added to the surface of the cheese at some time during the curing process. The cheese is then stored at a lower temperature for further curing. One or more of the optional ingredients specified in paragraph (b)(3) of this section may be added during the procedure.\n\n(b)  Optional ingredients.  The following safe and suitable ingredients may be used:\n\n(1)  Dairy ingredients.  Milk, nonfat milk, or cream, as defined in \u00a7 133.3, used alone or in combination.\n\n(2)  Clotting enzymes.

The weight of the benzoyl peroxide is not more than 0.002 percent of the weight of the milk being bleached, and the weight of the potassium alum, calcium sulfate, and magnesium carbonate, singly or combined, is not more than six times the weight of the benzoyl peroxide used. If milk is bleached in this manner, vitamin A is added to the curd in such quantity as to compensate for the vitamin A or its precursors destroyed in the bleaching process, and artificial coloring is not used.\n\n(vi) Hydrogen peroxide, followed by a sufficient quantity of catalase preparation to eliminate the hydrogen peroxide. The weight of the hydrogen peroxide shall not exceed 0.05 percent of the weight of the milk and the weight of the catalase shall not exceed 20 parts per million of the weight of the milk treated.\n\n(c)  Nomenclature.
