Buttermilk
Various milk products are generally referred to as buttermilk . Sometimes it is also viewed as a type of milk . It arises when churning through the separation of the butter grain from the cream contained liquid. It usually has a milk fat content of less than one percent.
Manufacturing
The basis of buttermilk is cream, which is separated from the skimmed milk by centrifuging the raw milk . After the cream has been further treated, if necessary by standardization and pasteurization, it is matured for the production of sweet cream butter, or it is acidified for sour cream butter. Butter-making separates most of the solids from the liquid, known as buttermilk. In Austria, buttermilk has to be made from sour cream according to the food book .
Likewise, the product resulting from the direct manufacture of milk fat products in Group XVII of the Milk Product Ordinance from cream is referred to as buttermilk.
