Milk Powder Substitute for Sodium Cassinate?

I was looking at the recipe for Melty Blue Cheese slices and thought I'd make some for burger this week but I don't have Sodium Cassinate and thanks to Canadian customs, I won't be able to order from ModernistPantry in time.

I assume the Sodium Cassinate is to boost the protein content. Could I substitute Skim Milk Powder and if so, in what ratio? I do fortunately have SHMP and Sodium Citrate on hand and made some gorgeous Melty slices from a blend of very old smoked gouda and smoked cheddar.

Your theory seems sound but I haven't tried blue cheese yet. Sodium citrate can be used to make slices from cheeses that don't normally allow it as you know so maybe just do a test batch.
