In 2 weeks he plans to go to Egypt to start production<br />
<strong>of</strong> an Egyptian cheese like Domiati cheese made with<br />
a combination <strong>of</strong> <strong>soy</strong><strong>milk</strong> <strong>and</strong> water buffalo <strong>milk</strong>.<br />
The proportion <strong>of</strong> each ingredient is a secret. Based<br />
on experiments he conducted 3 years ago, the fl avor,<br />
appearance, <strong>and</strong> acceptance are good. The plant has a<br />
capacity <strong>of</strong> 5 metric tons <strong>of</strong> cheese a day. The product will<br />
sell for about half the price <strong>of</strong> <strong>other</strong> Egyptian cheeses. It<br />
takes a great deal <strong>of</strong> time to get anything done in Egypt. He<br />
must keep pushing <strong>and</strong> supervise everything personally. If<br />
this plant <strong>and</strong> product do well, he is planning to build 4 more<br />
similar plants in Egypt, <strong>and</strong> to sell his cheese-making knowhow<br />
to China, Mexico, Guatemala, <strong>and</strong> India.<br />

• Summary: Pr<strong>of</strong>. Kazuo Murakami <strong>and</strong> Pr<strong>of</strong>. Isao<br />
Kusakabe have found two special enzymes that works well<br />
in coagulating <strong>soy</strong><strong>milk</strong>. Both have a molecular weight <strong>of</strong><br />
about 24,000 <strong>and</strong> are proteins. The enzymes were found<br />
in soil bacteria on a small isl<strong>and</strong> near Shikoku. If you add<br />
this enzyme to <strong>soy</strong><strong>milk</strong> heated to 70ºC, it coagulates into a<br />
<strong>yogurt</strong>-like product in about 2 minutes. This <strong>yogurt</strong>-like curd<br />
is mostly protein, does not have any sourness or bitterness,<br />
<strong>and</strong> has a smooth texture <strong>and</strong> mouthfeel–all <strong>of</strong> which make it<br />
well suited for use as a raw material in food manufacturing.<br />
The researchers hope to use the curds to make a fermented<br />
non-dairy <strong>soy</strong> cheese by removing excess water from the<br />
curd, adding lactic acid <strong>and</strong> salt, then letting it ferment.<br />

• Summary: In this Mycological Society <strong>of</strong> America Annual<br />
Lecture, presented on 7 Aug. 1984 at Colorado State<br />
University (Fort Collins, Colorado), Dr. Hesseltine gives a<br />
nice <strong>history</strong> <strong>of</strong> the research conducted by him <strong>and</strong> <strong>other</strong>s at<br />
the Northern Regional Research <strong>Center</strong> (NRRC) on Asian<br />
<strong>soy</strong>bean fermentations, including fermented t<strong>of</strong>u (Frank<br />
Meyer, early USDA plant explorer, in a letter dated 21 Nov.<br />
1916, states: “Parcel No. 125c contains fi rst quality Chinese<br />
<strong>soy</strong>bean cheese: please taste a little on the point <strong>of</strong> a knife;<br />
it is extremely appetizing.”), sufu, shoyu, miso, tempeh,<br />
Chinese black beans (fermented black <strong>soy</strong>beans), natto, <strong>and</strong><br />
“the use <strong>of</strong> lactic acid bacteria to produce a <strong>yogurt</strong> product<br />
from <strong>soy</strong>beans.” He also studied non-fermented t<strong>of</strong>u.<br />
Dr. Hesseltine pays a nice tribute to the work <strong>of</strong> Dr. A.K.<br />
Smith <strong>of</strong> the NRRC (p. 506-07). After his trip to East Asia<br />
shortly after World War II, Dr. Smith (a protein chemist)<br />
made great efforts to promote cooperation between the<br />
USDA, particularly the NRRC, <strong>and</strong> Japan in conducting<br />
research to underst<strong>and</strong> how our exported <strong>soy</strong>beans were used<br />
for food. He had the foresight to recognize the importance<br />
<strong>of</strong> studying <strong>soy</strong>beans used in such huge quantities for<br />
processing into human food. Dr. Smith was instrumental in
