Is it one of those things where you just need a tiny bit of sodium citrate to trigger the meltiness, not even like a whole bunch?

I sell cheese for a living and am working on becoming a CCP (certified cheese professional, think sommelier but for cheese).

Cheese melts when the calcium holding the caesin proteins together dissolves under heat, letting the proteins separate and loosen. The more aged a cheese is, the better it melts (aged cheddar vs like mozzarella) because the proteins are broken down into smaller pieces by the ripening enzymes (which also breaks down lactose into lactic acid, causing the increase in sourness that we call "sharpness"). High fat content also causes a cheese to melt better, which is why stuff like American cheese and Velveeta are so good at it. High acid content, like swiss cheeses, don't melt as good.

If you get grainy cheese after melting it, its because you did it too quickly and the proteins seized up, clump together, and squeeze the fat out, causing a lumpy, grainy, oily mess. You can also add acid and corn starch to a melted cheese sauce (like fondue), which both do things to keep the proteins isolated from each other, which keeps it smooth and creamy instead of clumpy and stringy.

Follow me for more cheese facts.

Goat cheese is a huge category, as its just a milk you can make cheese from. Young, fresh cheeses like mozzarella and ricotta are lower fat, as is feta. Most cheeses are really high in saturated fat though by their nature.

I knew a lady who did that CCP thing, she LOVED cheese. The kind of person who you'd invite her over and she'd come in with like, a bucketful of burratas and a bottle of wine.

A teaspoon of sodium citrate is basically magic for any food that is a mixture of polar and non polar compounds. Anything you don't want the oil to seperate from.

The problem is, a few different chemicals get sold as "sodium citrate" but only one actually works, so people end up buying the wrong thing and getting frustrated.

I read in the news that the price of contraband Finnish cheese in Russia has increased considerably. (Seriouspost, obviously - I wouldn't lie about dairy.)
