Tag: Milk oil

Anhydrous milk fat (AMF), also known as butter oil, has been utilized by various cultures for millennia due to its excellent shelf stability and versatility. The oil from milk is produced by removing the water and non-fat milk solids from butter or cream, resulting in a highly concentrated and long-lasting dairy fat product.

An 8-ounce glass of whole milk contains approximately 8 grams of fat, but that fat is not the same as the oil you use for cooking. The question, "Does whole milk have oil in it?", fundamentally misunderstands how milk's complex, naturally-occurring fat content is structured.
