So, what is anhydrous milkfat?

Anhydrous milkfat is a dairy-derived ingredient that contains pure milk fat without any water content. It's made by removing the water and non-fat solids from milk through a process called centrifugation. This results in a creamy, smooth, and rich-tasting substance that's commonly used in food processing, especially in the production of baked goods, confectionery, and chocolate products. Anhydrous milkfat has a high smoke point, which makes it ideal for frying and sautéing as it doesn't burn easily. Additionally, it adds a distinct buttery flavor to dishes, making it a popular choice among chefs and home cooks alike.
