Following is a summary of the results of the survey. Fluid Milk Product Distribution * This is the eighth survey conducted for the Upper Midwest Order since order consolidation and reform in January By Container Size 2000.

This would include sales through convenience stores and supermarkets as well as sales to schools and restaurants. Gallon 69% Size of Container In November 2015, gallons accounted for 69% of the total pounds of fluid milk product distribution, as shown to the right, followed by half-gallons at 16%, half-pints at 10%, and quarts at 2%.

  • Country Cheese – a Primer by Dan Gill, Ethno-Gastronomist
    Country Cheese – A Primer By Dan Gill, Ethno-Gastronomist My wife, Barbara, recently made her special meatless lasagna, featuring handfuls of fresh basil and parsley, and bemoaned the fact that she no longer had my good homemade dry curd cottage cheese and had to resort to ricotta. Ricotta cheese, made from acidified whey, lacks the flavor and meaty texture of dry curd cottage cheese. Commercial (wet curd or creamed) cottage cheese is not an acceptable substitute: It is insipid, entirely too wet, and contains all sorts of additives, including phosphates and stabilizers to bind the added liquids from milk and whey so that we can be sold more water. Dry curd, or acid curd cottage cheese contains nothing but fermented milk and maybe a little salt. It is crumbly, pleasantly tart and can easily be made at home. Due to the health and nutritional benefits of naturally fermented milk products, dry curd cottage cheese has received a lot of attention recently. It is an excellent source of protein, calcium and digestible carbohydrates for dieters, and meets the low-lactose requirements of the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. I used to make a lot of cottage cheese (and butter and Cup Cheese) at home until our cow died. When we started Something Different, I made cottage cheese from powdered milk so that we had the whey to make our bread. Whey reinforces gluten in bread flour, resulting in a chewier texture that holds up well to our hearty sandwiches. Cottage cheese was actually the by-product. We sold it to the few customers who knew what it was and used it to make dips, spreads and real cheesecake.

  • Development of Functional Buttermilk by Soluble Fibre Fortification
    FUNCTIONAL FOOD DEEPAK MUDGIL*, SHEWETA BARAK *Corresponding Author Department of Dairy and Food Technology, Mansinhbhai Institute of Dairy and Food Technology, Mehsana, Gujarat-384002, India Deepak Mudgil Sheweta Barak Development of functional buttermilk by soluble fibre fortification KEYWORDS: buttermilk, soluble fibre, partially hydrolysed guar gum, fortification, sensory. Buttermilk has a potential to become a daily diet drink at global level due to its high nutritive value and Abstract ease of production process. In present study, novel buttermilk beverage was developed using fibre fortification. Acidity, pH, viscosity, whey separation and sensory properties were studied. Fortification with fibre (1-5%) showed non- significant changes in buttermilk acidity and pH. Phase separation was lowest and viscosity was highest in buttermilk sample with 5% fibre. Buttermilk samples were also evaluated for their sensory characteristics including color and appearance, body and mouthfeel, flavor and overall acceptability. Samples with 4% fibre level obtained the highest scores in the sensory evaluation. The viscosity of the buttermilk samples increased proportionally with the levels of fibre fortification. Soluble dietary fibre fortification at 4% level in buttermilk improved nutritive, physicochemical and desirable sensory characteristics. INTRODUCTION B2, vitamin B12, pantothenic acid-vitamin B5, zinc, potassium, protein, iodine and molybdenum. Presence of all these Functional foods are the products that resemble traditional nutrients in buttermilk makes it a nutritious and health-supportive foods but possessed demonstrated physiological benefi ts food. Buttermilk has been attributed nutraceutical, therapeutic due to presence of some bioactive components (1). Milk and probiotic effects, such as digestion enhancement, immune and dairy products have been an important part of human system boosting, anti-carcinogenic activity and reduction in diet from ancient times in many parts of world (2).

  • Buttermilk Powder Ingredients
    Buttermilk Powder Ingredients Buttermilk is a cultured product made from pasteurized or ultrapasteurized lowfat or skim milk with nonfat dry milk solids added. Buttermilk powder is obtained by removing water from liquid buttermilk that was derived by churning butter and pasteurized prior to condensing. Dry buttermilk is light cream in color with a clean neutral flavor. The following chart provides a typical compositional breakdown of buttermilk powder. Typical Composition of Buttermilk Powder (%) Milk Product Moisture Fat Protein Lactose Ash Buttermilk Powder 3.0-3.5 5.5-6.0 32.0-34.5 49.5-50.5 7.5-8.0 Beneficial Features Using buttermilk powder instead of fluid buttermilk makes transportation and storage easy. Additionally, removing moisture from buttermilk inhibits microbial growth and delivers a shelf life of six to nine months. Functionality Beyond adding concentrated calcium, protein and other important nutrients, buttermilk powder brings several desirable properties to food formulations: Browning/Color—Appealing for applications in baked goods or sauces, dairy proteins react with lactose and other reducing sugars during baking or cooking to produce a desirable browning effect. Emulsification—Proteins in dry buttermilk act as oil/water interfaces, aiding in the formulation and stabilization of fat emulsions. These properties are particularly useful in soups, baked goods, beverages and salad dressings. Flavor—Buttermilk powder can be used to enhance the dairy flavor of foods, contributing flavor notes from sweet to sour. Foaming—Dry buttermilk helps diffuse protein to an air/water interface, reducing surface tension and partially unfolding the protein. Encapsulated air bubbles form a stable and elastic film useful for creating desserts and cakes.

  • Curds Recipe
    Basic Curds for Fresh Cheeses The first bit of magic in making cheese is turning milk into curds and whey. Once you have these precious curds, you can make dozens of different kinds of fresh cheeses. Though there are many steps and some things that must be done exactly, there is still plenty or room for experimentation and creativity. Don’t be afraid to play around some after you make a few batches and get the hang of it. And don’t get stuck on just cow milk. You can use this recipe for goat or sheep milks too or blend different milks together. Prep Time: Equipment: 30-45 minutes of work Double boiler 2-10 hours of waiting Skimmer Ingredients: Thermometer 2 gallons milk (raw or pasteurized) Scale ½ pint buttermilk Long thin knife ½ tsp single strength liquid rennet or ¼ tsp of double strength Butter muslin 2 tbs – ½ cup mother culture or Spatula or large spoon 1 packet of direct set culture Colander 16-24 grams non-iodized salt Cheese mold (optional) Spices/flavorings (optional) Ripening: It is important that you lower the PH of your milk before coagulating with rennet. Raw milk will ripen and become more acidic quite nicely on its own. Pasteurized milk needs some help. It is possible to use lemon juice, citric acid powder or even yogurt, but I recommend using cultured buttermilk. 1. Add milk to double-boiler and heat until 85˚ F. 2. If using direct-set culture, follow instructions on packet for amounts and sprinkle on surface of milk. Allow to rehydrate for 2 minutes and then stir with skimmer using an up and down motion until fully incorporated.

  • Activity: Make Butter
    Making Better Butter People have been making butter from cream for over 4,000 years. When unpasteurized milk is left to sit, the cream will rise to the top. Shaking or churning this cream separates it into solid butter and liquid buttermilk. Make your own butter by following the steps below. What you will need: • 1 cup heavy whipping cream • Clear plastic or glass jar with a tight lid • Spatula • Bowl • Cold water Put it all together 1. Make a butter churner. Measure one cup of cream and put it in a clear jar. Screw the lid on tight. Allow the cream to reach room temperature. 2. Shake it up! Shake the cream. If you’d like, share the job with a friend and take turns shaking the jar. 3. Observe the changes. After some shaking, the cream will start to foam and thicken. If you were to open it now, you’d have whipped cream! 4. Keep shaking! Continue shaking the jar and observe how it continues to change. It should take about 10 minutes, but it will depend on the temperature of the cream and how fast you shake the jar. Stop once you see a solid lump in the center of the jar, surrounded by a thin milky liquid. 5. Separate the liquids and solids. Carefully pour the liquid into an empty bowl. This liquid is called buttermilk and is often used to make buttermilk pancakes or biscuits! The solid lump in the jar is butter. Use a spatula to squeeze out any remaining buttermilk liquid from the butter.
