I think you are talking about pasteurization, when milk is boiled at a certain temperature for a certain length of time than cooled again immediately. This is done to prevent or slow the microbial (bacterial) growth in food, which both milk and cheese would be at risk of if unpasteurised. I hope this helped.

When milk starts to boil, it quickly turns into a bubbly froth. Recipes tell you to scald milk and not boil it so you won't make a mess of your stovetop.

The only reason you want to boil milk is if you've got a recipe that requires it be boiled. You only have to take milk to 165 degrees F to pasteurize it.
