Gelato with Buttermilk? Your New Weapon in the Fight for Creaminess!
Looking for a way to make creamier, more stable, and... cheaper gelato? This article is a revolution! Discover how partially replacing milk powder with buttermilk powder can work wonders for your gelato's structure, slow down melting, and improve the taste.
Every artisan is constantly looking for ways to improve their recipes. We dream of gelato that is even creamier, more stable in the display case, and at the same time... won't break the bank. This article suggests a brilliantly simple solution that many of us have right under our noses: buttermilk powder!
Researchers decided to see what would happen if they partially replaced skim milk powder with buttermilk powder in a classic gelato base. The results are fascinating and extremely practical for every gelato maker. It turned out that this ingredient substitution was a bullseye! The gelato with buttermilk had better mix viscosity, which translates to better creaminess. What's more, its melting rate was lower, meaning the gelato holds its shape longer in the display case and on the cone. And most importantly, in blind sensory tests, it was the gelato with buttermilk that won, receiving the highest scores for taste, texture, and overall impression!
This is invaluable knowledge, but it raises a question: how do you safely implement such a change in your own workshop? Buttermilk has a different composition than milk powder – a different content of protein, fat, and lactose. A simple one-to-one ingredient substitution can ruin the entire recipe balancing. How will it affect the final sweetness, the gelato's plasticity, or the serving temperature?
And this is where our app enters the stage! It's your recipe command center that eliminates risk. Instead of risking spoiled production, you can safely simulate the substitution of milk powder with buttermilk. Our system, powered by artificial intelligence, will instantly recalculate the entire recipe, taking into account the unique profile of the new ingredient. It will help you adjust the sweetness and show you how the new formula will affect the final product. This allows for huge time savings when designing flavors and a significant cost reduction.
This article is an inspiration that shows that sometimes the best solutions are right next to us. And our app is the tool that allows you to implement these solutions flawlessly, quickly, and profitably.
