Unfolding the question, “How was rennet discovered?” we delve into historical accounts and scientific discoveries that have shaped our understanding and usage of this crucial enzyme complex.
Rennet is the enzymatic preparation of two main acid proteolytic enzymes (chymosin and pepsin) secreted in the fourth stomach (abomasum) of unweaned ruminants (calves, lambs or kids). The use of rennet in cheesemaking dates back to approximately 6000BC (Fox and McSweeney, 1997).
