Answer:
Rennet /ˈrɛnɪt/ is a complex set of enzymes produced in the stomachs of ruminant mammals. Chymosin, its key component, is a protease enzyme that curdles the casein in milk. In addition to chymosin, rennet contains other enzymes, such as pepsin and a lipase.
Rennet is used to separate milk into solid curds (for cheesemaking) and liquid whey, and so it or its substitutes is used in the production of most cheeses.
