    that explanation helps a lot. i finally understand butter, it's just overly shaken whipping cream. lol

      YES, isn't that funny?! Some classic food science behind both those products :)

    Perfect. That gives me enough that I can figure out what the process of clarifying butter does - boils away the remaining water and separates the oily fat from the solid fat crystals

      Ngl, I was not expecting cream to be an emulsion. I wonder if you can break hollandaise by shaking it

      Hollandaise sauce was actually the topic of one of my final exams during my bachelor's degree! It's an extra tricky because it's a foam and an emulsion

    Thanks for the knowledgeful video. I did this process since by childhood but did not know the science behind it.👍

    Omg as I'm reading the book Butter by Elaine Khosrova. What good timing!

      @@AbbeytheFoodScientist yes! Less science and more history/culture, but if you like that then I'd recommend :)

    What is the structure of a violently mixed butter and water in bulletproof coffee, which gets quite light without any milk? Egg yolk can be part of it, but doesn't seem to make much difference. Butter making is good as a science project, but not cost-effective, and doesn't yield a unique product that cannot be bought. Cream is very expensive, perishable, and a holiday treat.

    • @AbbeytheFoodScientist

      Oh, this is awesome I hadn't heard of bulletproof coffee before. The ghee (solid fat) would probably make a similar fat network as we see in butter, especially under all the agitation. Within the coffee, this fat network could trap some air bubbles to make it a light, airy texture. For the foam on top, there's some studies that have shown coffee has surface active particles that go to the air interface and stabilize air bubbles. This is called Pickering stabilization when solid particles stabilize an interface.

    Just wisking until separation occurs only takes a few minutes. Then rinse in cold water to prevent butter going ransid. Otherwise good presentation.

    So because of the crystals in the cream you can make butter but if you just whip olive oil it would never solidify because of a lack of the solid crystal?

    • @AbbeytheFoodScientist
      @AbbeytheFoodScientist  3 роки тому +1

      Yes, exactly! You won't be able to build the fat network without the solid fat.

    Where i come from butter is just for recipes from other countries or cakes, so i never really understood how the whole churning thing works
