What it is

Pasteurized buffalo milk comes from domestic water buffalo. It is heated to a specific temperature for a set amount of time to kill harmful bacteria, making it safe for consumption. This milk is richer and creamier than cow's milk, with a higher fat and protein content.

Why it's used

Buffalo milk is most commonly used to make cheese, particularly mozzarella. Its high fat and protein content contribute to a rich flavor and creamy texture in dairy products. It can also be used in yogurts, ice creams, and other dairy-based desserts.

Health notes

Pasteurized buffalo milk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of protein, calcium, and other nutrients. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated milk and dairy products, but specific evaluations for buffalo milk's health effects at typical intake levels are not widely published. Evidence suggests it is nutritionally similar to cow's milk, offering comparable health benefits.

Allergen info

Milk is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Pasteurized buffalo milk is derived from milk and therefore contains this allergen. It does not contain gluten.
