What it is

Unsalted butter is a dairy product made from pasteurized cream. The cream is churned until the fat separates from the buttermilk, and the butter is then washed and worked to remove excess liquid and achieve a smooth texture. It is called 'unsalted' because salt is not added during processing.

Why it's used

Butter provides a rich flavor and creamy texture to foods. It also acts as a fat source in baked goods, helping with tenderness and structure, and can be used for sautéing or as a spread. It is commonly found in baked goods like cakes and cupcakes, as well as frozen dinners and appetizers.

Health notes

Butter is primarily composed of milk fat, which is high in saturated fat. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers butter to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). Dietary guidelines recommend limiting saturated fat intake. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated butter and its components.

Allergen info

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