Animal rennet is designated as E538 in the European food additive numbering system. It is commonly used in cheese production as a coagulant to help curdle milk. Rennet is derived from the stomachs of ruminant animals, typically calves, and is valued for its ability to produce firm curds. It is important for both traditional and some artisanal cheese-making processes.
