Research Summary
Butter is a dairy product made from churning cream or milk, separating the fat solids from the liquid (buttermilk). It is a solid or semi-solid substance with a creamy texture and a distinct rich flavor. Butter is typically composed of approximately 80% milk fat, with the remaining percentage comprising water and milk solids. It is widely used in cooking, baking, and as a spread on bread or toast. Butter adds flavor, richness, and a smooth texture to various dishes, making it a versatile ingredient in both sweet and savory recipes. It can be made from different types of milk, including cow, sheep, and goat, each imparting its unique taste and characteristics. Butter is available in salted and unsalted varieties, with the latter being preferred in recipes where precise control of salt content is desired. It is important to store butter properly to prevent it from spoiling or developing off-flavors.
