So, what is milk-fat?
Milk-fat, also known as butterfat, is a creamy and rich ingredient that is extracted from cow's milk. It is commonly used in culinary applications to enhance the flavor and texture of dishes. Milk-fat has a high melting point, which makes it ideal for baking and frying. It contains a mixture of saturated and unsaturated fats, providing a balance of flavor and nutritional benefits. Milk-fat is also a natural emulsifier, helping to bind ingredients together and create a smooth, creamy texture. In addition to its culinary uses, milk-fat is often used in cosmetic products for its moisturizing properties.
