Milkfat
- Milkfat ingredients provide unique
flavor, mouthfeel and emulsification properties to gravies, white
sauces and cream soups
- Butter adds a rich, unique flavor
that is unmatched by any other fat
- Butter can be heated to different
temperatures to produce characteristic flavor notes associated with
different sauces: lightly melted butter is typically used in cream
and white sauces such as Hollandaise, to provide rich, dairy notes;
slightly overheated butter provides roasted, cooked notes that
complement brown sauces and gravies; overheated, unburned butter
contributes flavor notes that complement barbecue and smoke-flavored
sauces
- Butter works well as a flavor
carrier for spices, sweet and savory flavors, herbs and other
fat-soluble ingredients
- Butter aids in the even
distribution of oil-soluble flavors throughout sauces and soupsits
narrow melting range ensures quick flavor release and complete
melting of butter at body temperatures for a melt-away
effect, which aids in smooth mouthfeel
- Butter contributes a visually
appealing golden color, or a darker color after heat treatment, to
sauces and soups
