What it is
Skim milk is cow's milk from which nearly all of the milk fat has been removed. This is typically achieved through a process called centrifugation, which separates the lighter fat from the heavier liquid milk components. The resulting product is a low-fat dairy liquid.
Why it's used
Skim milk is widely used in food manufacturing as a base for various dairy products, including yogurt, cheese, and ice cream, especially those marketed as low-fat. It contributes dairy flavor, protein, and helps create the desired texture and body in foods without adding significant fat.
Health notes
Skim milk is a commonly consumed food and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of essential nutrients like protein, calcium, and vitamin D (if fortified). There are no specific health controversies associated with skim milk itself, beyond general dietary considerations for dairy consumption.
Allergen info
Skim milk is a major allergen, as it is derived from milk.
