摘要

A method and a system for the continuous production with steam of fresh pasta filata cheese, like mozzarella and the like are proposed, wherein a. first feeding step of curd under pressure in a curd feeder (2) and an adjustable second curd manipulation step in a vertical manipulation column (3) are provided which latter is fluidically connected at one side with said feeder (2) and at the other side with a discharging duct (31) for discharging the produced cheese. In the manipulation column the curd in a profiled jacket (21) provided with manipulation means (15, 16, 17) is also submitted to the force of gravity which acts onto said curd with a counteraction to the upward thrust carried out onto said curd, In the jacket (21) are housed nozzles (24) for introducing into said cured steam under pressure, thermal feeler (29) and, preferably, nozzles (27) for infecting pre-calculated water into said curd.
