Guest guest Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 This morning, I was watching " Secrets of a Restaurant Cook " on Food Network (because Chef Anne Burrell was doing a frittata recipe). During that same episode, she made fresh butter. I never knew that butter was made from whipping full cream. It seems stupid, but if it's made from whipping cream, why is it SCD-legal? Are commercial butters made this way? And if so, wouldn't the cream need to ferment before its whipped into a cream? Wouldn't the lactose in the butter still be there and cause a problem? Interested in hearing answers... Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were going to use whipping cream as whipped cream, yes, you would need to ferment it. But since it is just the milk fat of the cream, butter is not illegal. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Babette the Foundling Beagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
