What it is
Grade A pasteurized milk is milk that has been heated to at least 161°F (72°C) for 15 seconds, or a higher temperature for a shorter time. This process kills most harmful bacteria and extends the milk's shelf life. It is the standard for milk sold in the United States.
Why it's used
Grade A pasteurized milk is the base ingredient for a wide variety of dairy products. It is commonly used in the production of yogurt, cheese, butter, ice cream, and other milk-based beverages and desserts. Its heat treatment makes it safe for direct consumption and further processing.
