The information about “100 Jahre Vogelwarte Helgoland” quite limited so I just managed to find information about “Helgoland”. Based on Wikipedia, Helgoland is Germany’s mainland remote island. It often referred as Germany’s only offshore island. The main island of Helgoland is divided into the upper country, the Central Plateau and the Lower Country.

*The actual information about Helgoland is in German and I made it translate to English.

The Types of Cheese

Do you know the types of cheese? If did not know, scroll down……….


Semi-Hard Cheese

Each country has its own semi-hard cheese such as Colby, Jarlsberg, Tilsiter, Gouda and Edam. They all produced in a similar way but differ in fat content, moisture texture, ripening and taste.

The young, mild, semi-hard cheese ideal for melting which is often sliced for use in sandwiches while more mature cheese with a stronger taste is popular as a snack. 



Cheddar Cheese

It originated in the village of Cheddar in the Somerset region of England.

The cheese curd is formed when the milk coagulates with rennet. Then the curd is cut and cheddared (salted & milled). The salted and milled curd gains are then formed into blocks of cheese.


Cottage Cheese

Cottage cheese is a creamy, granular, fresh cheese. It is an acid curd cheese that relies on warm milk to form a curd as it acidifies.




Fresh Cheese

Fresh cheeses vary considerably in water content which affects their texture. Quark contains the highest moisture level while cream cheese has lower moisture content. 



Hard Cheese

It usually has moisture contents lower than 35% such as Parmesan, Emmenthal and Gruyere, all made from cow’s milk.



Pasta Filata & Pizza Cheese

Pasta Filata cheeses bring perfect cheese sensation to pizza and other hot dishes. The cheese become elastic when heated and form long strings when the melted cheese is pulled such as Low-moisture Mozzarella and pizza cheese.

Pasta Filata cheese originally Provolone, Mozzarella and Caciocavallo from Southern Italy.




Whey

The whey collected from cheese production is a valuable raw material for production of whey powder and products like whey protein concentrate (WPC) and whey protein isolate (WPI).

Whey products used in food products such as processed meat, sausages, health food and beverages. They bring increased nutrition and improved texture to food products.

Being Malaysian: A Young Writers Anthology

This book is a collection of stories from 30 young Malaysian writers ponder what being Malaysian means to them in everyday and festive contexts.


Manglish 101

Walaowei (interjection) - expressing shock: Walaowei! Why do you have such huge underwear?

Oi (Interjection) – expressing annoyance: Oi! Get your feet off my head!

A Typically True Malaysian

Even the towkays (boss) and taxi drivers to the workers at the mamak stall look up to me. And they all sing loudly for me: “Negaraku, tanah tumpahnya darahku….”

As was well-stated in most school history books: “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” Those were the words of George Santayana, a philosopher.

Paradoxically Parallel

Satnam’s Proton is outside the gate, but clearly he should know that when someone says to be ready in 30 minutes, they really mean one hour. It’s practically a rule in Malaysia.

The Elegance of Simplicity

She remembered the saying, “You are what you wear.” She had assumed she understood it, but she was wrong. Malaysians wore the baju kurung, sari and cheongsam to become elegant, original and individuals. If I was to become elegant, original and individuals, I had better get out of this mutilated baju kurung, thought Denna resolutely.
