What it is

Pasteurized cultured cream and milk is a dairy product made by adding a starter culture of lactic acid bacteria to cream and milk. The bacteria ferment the lactose (sugar) in the milk, producing lactic acid, which thickens the product and gives it a tangy flavor. Pasteurization kills harmful bacteria, making it safe for consumption.

Why it's used

This ingredient is used to add a rich, creamy texture and a slightly sour taste to foods. It functions as a flavor enhancer and provides moisture. It is commonly found in baked goods like cakes and cupcakes, as well as in frozen appetizers, dips, and cheese-based products.
