BUTTER ANALYSIS
I. OBJECTIVES
Butter production dates back to the early stages of the transformation process of
the milk. The cream naturally separated and the butter was made in a way
manual in wooden butter churns. Gradually, the methods were improved.
production of butter, which increased the quality of the product and its
economic performance.
In recent decades, there has been a rapid technological development in all the
areas. The current production of butter is based on modern technological processes.
and in rigorous total quality controls.

There are different variations in the preparation, and this means that there are not only
different flavors but also there can be different consistencies of the dough of
butter, however most of the final product is made up of fats
from the butter. Butter contains three types of fats: free fats, fats
crystallized, and undamaged fat globules. In the final product, there is a proportion
of these three types of fats and this is the reason for the difference in consistency in the
various types of butter.
The process of removing the cream from the milk produces small "clumps" floating in the
liquid solution of the cream. This solution is called buttermilk - (whey of
butter), this whey is now consumed in some countries as a dairy product. The
butter serum is being removed from the process and the resulting lumps are being discarded
working, pressing and removing to form a single solid mass.
When prepared by hand, wooden levers known as 'manos' are used.
Scottish (scotch hands). This operation gives consistency to the butter and goes
clearing from the inside of the clumps the small water droplets that are leaving
remaining inside it. Commercial butter has a fat content of around
80% butterfat and a remaining 15% water; artisanal butter has
a different proportion reaching 65% fat and 30% water
There are several types of butter, but two can basically be distinguished:

STORAGE
Butter can generally be spread on bread or toast at a
temperature of 15 °C, above the operating temperature of therefrigerator.
The so-called 'butter compartment' that can be found in many
refrigerators is one of the least cold areas, but still far from the ideal temperature for
so that the butter spreads easily once placed on the table.
When storing butter, the following should be taken into account:
The parts of the butter exposed to light and air usually have a more
yellowish or even translucent; these areas should be avoided as their taste is
rancid. In this case, it is enough to remove them; the rest of the butter is edible.

India, which produces and consumes more butter than any other nation in the
the world dedicates almost half of its milk production to the making of its butter
called ghee. In 1997, India produced 1,470,000 metric tons of
butter, consuming most of its own production. In the second
the United States was in first place (522,000 tons), followed by France (466
000), Germany (442,000), and New Zealand (307,000). In terms of consumption,
Germany is in second place behind India, using 578,000 tons of
butter in 1997, followed by France (528,000), Russia (514,000), and the United States
United (505,000). Most nations produce and consume what their industry

valued in the regions of the Himalayas, Bhutan, Nepal, and in India); the tsampa that
it uses barley flour mixed with Yak milk butter, it is considered
a staple food. In Africa and Asia, butter is usually made in a way
traditional with sour milk instead of being made with cream.
