The influence of different emulsifying salts ( ES ) on the physicochemical parameters and sensory qualities of spreadable processed cheese ( SPPC ) was evaluated. The fat and moisture contents of the SPPC were not affected significantly by varying proportions of ES . The replacement of sodium‐based polyphosphate blends by their monopotassium phosphate counterpart at 25% (w/w) markedly improved the sensory quality of the SPPC (on a weight basis). An SPPC of acceptable quality labelled as a ‘reduced sodium’ product was obtained using a blend of commercial emulsifying salts and monopotassium phosphate (1:1 w/w) added at 1.2% (w/w) of the total formulation weight.
