The production of Allium sativum (AS) cheddar cheese in the presence and absence of fish collagen (FC) compared to plain cheese with/without FC was conducted to determine sensory evaluations during 0, 14, 30, and 60 days of ripening. The evaluation system consists of seven parts; outer appearance, colour, texture, consistency of body, consistency of colour, flavour and aroma. Ripened cheeses were assessed by a sensory panels based on a 10-point system. The present results demonstrated that outer appearance of AS cheese in presence of FC showed the lowest score (2.8 ± 0.09) after 8 weeks of ripening. The color criteria of all fresh cheese samples reduced significantly (p<0.05) at the end of ripening period. The highest flavor score of cheese samples was shown at week 2 of ripening for all cheese samples except of AS-cheese. AS-cheese in the presence and absence of FC registered lower aroma score than their respective control during the period of ripening. In conclusion, AS- and AS+FC-cheeses can be consumed within 2 to 4 weeks of storage for the best organoleptic properties.
