The subject of this invention is a method of producing cheese crisps, cheese crisps and food produce containing cheese crisps applicable in food industry.

The method of manufacturing extruded crisps containing granules of cheese is known from the Russian description of patent No. RU2312521 and works by mixing 15% of ground "Chedder" cheese of a particle size ranging from 0.32 mm to 0.63 mm, with 85% w/w of rice; next, the mixture is moistened to obtain moisture level between 15-18% and is processed in an extruder in temperature between 150-160 C with pressure between 7.5-8.5 MPa; the surface of the extruded produce is sprinkled with salt with added vitamins in quantity of 2.5% of weight of cheese crisps. According to another version, 10% of "Chedder" cheese is mixed with 90% of weight amount of wheat or dried mixture of 20% of weight amount of "Chedder" is mixed with 80% of weight amount of wheat-rye.

The nutritional values of crisps and a method of their manufacturing is known from the European description of patent No EP 2206434. Crisps, especially highly nutritional ones contain cheese and bread; typical crisps contain the following ingredients in percentage by weight: bread crumbs, bread preferably white bread between 18.70 - 19.00%, cheese between 36.66 - 36.80%, refined vegetable oil preferably rape oil between 7.25 - 8.9%, between 34.30 - 36.61% of water, 0.01% of vitamin C, dried seasonings between 0.05 - 0.15%, and salt substitute between 0.68 - 0.84%.

The method describes stage where ground cheese is added to the carbohydrate compounds, with added vegetable oil in water, obtained in this way mixture is then stirred, thermal treated, and finally cut into sheets and cooled. Obtained produce contains between 33.6 - 34.4% of protein, between 3.0 - 3.5% of fat, and between 52.4 - 57.0% of water, is suitable for children, rich in nutritional values, delicious and crunchy.

The method of manufacturing food produce, an extruder for manufacturing food produce and food produce are known from the Polish description of patent No PL203664, obtained by using cheese pastes, which contains large quantities of dry matter, typically between 50-60%. In case of well known extruding systems, the cutting forces in the extruding nozzle are too great in order to achieve a well formed product. The method of manufacturing food produce comprising a fixed rim, which envelops at least one fill, using basic food material for forming the product rim and at least one food material as a filler, in the joint extruder containing extruding nozzle powered by basic food material and at least one filling material; this method is characterized by the use of a dual-compartment extruding nozzle, where a fixed rim is formed; this rim becomes firm in the first stage of the process in the first compartment of a nozzle, by cooling the basic food material, and next in the second stage of this process in the second compartment of a nozzle this firmed and formed rim is filled with at least one filling material and as a result a ready products is obtained, which contains a rim filled with at least one of this filling materials, and the ready product is received.

The main food ingredient is usually protein component, however it can also be polysaccharides.

Cooling of a rim is done by using a circulation of water or similar liquid. Natural cheeses, fresh clots of milk and unprocessed cheese produce, cheese spreads and processed cheese produce, with homogeneous salts or without homogenous salts can be used as a rim material.

The filling and the rim is made in approximately 90C in AC power trays, then the filling is cooled to approximately 80C and the rim to about 60C between AC power trays and the extruding head; the rim is extruded and the first compartment of a nozzle is cooled to about 50C in order to firm the rim; the filling which fills the rim made in the first compartment is extruded, and the second compartment of a nozzle is cooled to about 30C, whereas the products which leaves the nozzle has approximate temperature of 38C.

The essence of this method, according to the invention, is that cheese is checked under metal detector, cut with a food sheer into slices between 1 - 7 mm thick, and an optical detector is used to check for the presence of any foreign bodies within the produce. Next, cheese slices are frozen to temperature between -5C to -30C by using the supply of cold air between -20C to -lOOC, in the period of time between 5 to 40 minutes. Frozen cheese slices of between 1 - 20 kg of weight are aerated by rapid water evaporation process, causing the appearance of typical smaller and/or larger bubbles, which increase the volume of the product. The aeration is conducted in a microwave- vacuum dryer in the period of time between 1 - 20 min, with pressure between 15 - 100 hPa and applied microwave power between 5 - 120 kW.

After the aeration process, cheese slices are mixed with the seasoning, post dried in temperature between 20 - 65C in the period of time between 0.5 - 2 hours, until the moisture between 1 - 9% is achieved, which gives the product its crunchiness and afterwards cheese slices are sieved in a sifter and an accepted fraction is packed.
