Rennet has been used for centuries in cheese-making, and its discovery is not attributed to a specific individual. It is believed to have originated in ancient times, likely in regions where dairy farming was practiced, such as in Mesopotamia and the Mediterranean. The enzyme rennin, which is responsible for coagulating milk, was likely discovered through trial and error by early cheese makers who noticed the curdling effect of rennet derived from the stomachs of ruminant animals.
