The Science of High-Performance Cream
The secret to this blend lies in its clever emulsification of buttermilk and vegetable fats. According to culinary insights from Good Housekeeping, alternatives like Elmlea Double Cream are often preferred for large-scale catering because they are less temperamental than fresh dairy. This makes it an “emergency” pantry hero that performs under pressure.
Furthermore, for those monitoring their dietary intake, the British Heart Foundation suggests that replacing some saturated animal fats with vegetable-based options can be a mindful choice. At Ambas Foods, we monitor our supply chain strictly to ensure your items arrive chilled and ready for use.
