How to make butter?
Oil - is a dairy product obtained by whipping cream. According to the technological features distinguish the different types of oil - butter (from pasteurized cream) or kisloslivochnoe (from pasteurized cream, fermented with pure cultures of lactic acid bacteria), melted (with a mass fraction of fat - 99.8%) and salt (with the addition of sodium salt).
By the number of fat in the product and process standards is extra-butter (80-85%), Country (72,5-79,9%) and the sandwich (61,5-72,4%) and melted butter (milk fat - a 99,8%).
The remaining components of butter - the so-called oil plasma
— it consists of milk proteins, water, lactose (milk sugar), mineral salts, lactic acid and water-soluble vitamins. The more plasma, the lower the fat content of butter, and vice versa.
Interestingly, the statement if the brittleness or softness determine the quality and authenticity of the oil - is a myth. This feature depends on the season - in the spring and summer is dominated by low-melting fats, and in winter - refractory. The increased fragility oil may be associated with some non-observance of temperature conditions during the manufacture of whipping cream product. Under such conditions, the plasma in the fat phase can be distributed unevenly, which gives the oil greater fragility.
The use of butter
Butter - healthy food, it is a valuable source of nutrients, calories, fat, and vitamins A, K, E Oil improves the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, E, D, and unsaturated fatty acids which have in this product is well affect the state of the vessels.
The main thing - do not forget about moderation of its use. We must remember that in the butter a lot of saturated fats, excessive use of which warn doctors. For example, 100 g of oil - of saturated fat in the average half - 50 g (81% fat content for butter) and this — double daily rate for our body. The lower the fat content of the oil, the less fat in it at all and, consequently, of saturated fats.
Harm butter
100 g of oil, more than 700 calories - almost one third of the caloric needs of the person who is moderately moving. In addition, the oil a lot of cholesterol: 100 g — 250 mg.
Our diet often contains excessive amounts of animal saturated fat, and this is a factor cardiovascular disease. Therefore it is necessary reasonably to limit itself in the use of animal fats, including butter, as well as to monitor the cholesterol level.
How much can you eat butter?
Per day, doctors are advised to eat no more than 20-30 grams of saturated fat. The American Heart Association recommends that to reduce this number to 13 g (at a diet in 2000 calories a day). Therefore, the amount of oil that can be eaten, will depend on its content of saturated fat and from your diet. But it is desirable to use not more than 40 g per day (oil fat content not exceeding 82%) and in the absence of other saturated fats in the diet.
What are the substitutes for oil?
Spreads and margarine— products look similar to oil, but the composition is far from it. On their packaging may depict cows or goats, but not write, "butter". Therefore, when you buy oil, you should read the writing on the package carefully.
Margarine dairy products has nothing to do. Usually it is hydrogenated vegetable oils in combination with dyes and flavors. The main danger margarine - high content of trans fat — up to 50%. The enzymes in our body can not digest these fatty acids.
spread - This emulsion mixture of dairy and vegetable fat, where the milk fat mass fraction is at least one-fourth of the total fat in the product. Trans fat content should not exceed 8% in it, as in the ordinary butter.
