OK, so to continue with the soft cheese thought: Would the flavor produced by lipase need to be developed during the aging process, or would one still get the flavor enhancement in a non-aged soft cheese? I’m guessing that the flavor is a result of the lipase enzyme reacting with lipids in the milk. It might, therefore, not be of any benefit unless aged. On the other hand, my Manchego recipe calls for lipase; but is only aged from a week to whenever. So maybe the flavor development is rather rapid?
