Cottage cheese does not have rennet as traditional cottage cheese and Paneer is made without the use of rennet and is instead coagulated with vinegar or lemon juice which is an acidic ingredient.
Vegetarians cannot eat rennet as rennet comes from the stomach of ruminant animals such as goats and cows and is an enzyme.
Because rennet is obtained from animals it is not vegetarian.
The way you get rennet is by deriving the rennet from the stomach fat of a goat, lamb or calf.
Most stomach-derived rennet is taken from the fourth stomach of young, unweaned calves.
These animals are not killed expressly for their rennet; rather they are killed for meat production (in this case, veal) and the rennet is a byproduct.
Animal rennet is derived from the stomach of a calf, lamb or goat while their diets are still limited to milk, this is typically 90% pure chymosin.
Vegetable rennet is made from a type of mold (Mucur Miehei).
However, even though it is derived from mold, there is no mold contained in the final product.
