The question is: does it work on cheese?
- tempodox 10y agoAnd the next question: Can you do it yourself? The shops where I get my cheese from all seem to be afraid that properly aged cheese might explode when they switch the light on.
- luminiferous 10y agoI wouldn't imagine so. The mechanism of action for spirits here is that the ultrasound extracts the various flavor compounds from the wood much quicker than it normally takes the alcohol solution to without ultrasound. But aged cheese's flavor mostly comes from the action of mold and/or bacteria chemically altering the cheese. I can't imagine that blasting ultrasound into the cheese would accelerate this process, sadly.
