What it is

Cultured pasteurized milk is milk that has been heated to kill harmful bacteria (pasteurized) and then had beneficial bacteria (cultures) added. These cultures ferment the milk, creating a tangy flavor and changing its texture. Salt is added for flavor and preservation.

Why it's used

Salt is added to cultured pasteurized milk products primarily for flavor enhancement and to help preserve the food. It can also affect texture. It is commonly found in cheeses, yogurts, and other fermented dairy products.

Health notes

Salt (sodium chloride) is recognized as safe by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. The FDA and other health organizations recommend limiting sodium intake to reduce the risk of high blood pressure. JECFA has evaluated salt and established an acceptable daily intake. Evidence suggests high sodium intake is associated with increased blood pressure, but the relationship is complex and influenced by genetics and other dietary factors.

Allergen info

Cultured pasteurized milk is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 major allergens identified by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
