What it is

This is milk from cows that has been pasteurized (heated to kill germs) and then had beneficial bacteria (cultures) added to it. The cultures ferment the milk, giving it a tangy flavor and thicker texture. It is graded 'Grade A' based on sanitary conditions and bacterial counts.

Why it's used

Cultured pasteurized whole milk is primarily used as the base for yogurt and other fermented dairy products like kefir and sour cream. It provides a creamy texture and characteristic tangy flavor. It is also used in dips and some cheeses.

Health notes

Cultured pasteurized whole milk is a common food ingredient and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of protein, calcium, and vitamin D. Fermented dairy products containing live and active cultures may offer some digestive benefits, though research is ongoing. JECFA has evaluated milk and milk products.

Allergen info

Milk is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. This ingredient is derived from milk.
