Many cakes and ice creams require a high-fat cream that you don't often see in the store. However, do not give up the idea of preparing a treat. You can increase the fat content of the cream yourself.
It is necessary
- - blender;
- - pan;
- - butter;
- - milk separator;
- - a whisk.
Instructions
Step 1
Let the cream sit for a while and then remove the top. Milk should remain at the bottom, but thickened cream should remain on top. In this case, be careful, because the cream quickly turns sour.
Step 2
In order to obtain a cream with a higher fat content, it can be evaporated. For example, to increase the fat content by ten percent, you need to evaporate half of the package. Calculate how much you need to evaporate to get the desired fat content, and put the cream on low heat. After the excess liquid has evaporated, remove the pan and put it in the cold.
Step 3
If you have a milk separator, you can run the cream through it. The result is milk and creamier. Also in the separator you can make the cream of the desired fat content directly from milk by turning the adjusting screw.
Step 4
Take liquid cream and butter that has previously sat at room temperature and become soft. Combine the ingredients and use a whisk to whisk the mixture until smooth. The heavy cream is ready.
Step 5
To make heavy cream, use butter and milk. For example, to get 500 grams of 35% fat cream, you will need 400 milliliters of milk and the same amount of butter. If you want cream with an even higher percentage of fat, increase the amount of butter. In a similar way, you can thicken liquid cream, while taking less oil.
Step 6
Pour the milk into a saucepan, grate the butter, add it to the milk or cream and place the saucepan on the stove with a low heat. Make sure that the liquid does not boil, but only heats up. Stir constantly. Once the butter has dissolved, pour the mixture into a blender and whisk for three minutes.
Step 7
Refrigerate the mixture for eight hours. After this period, you will have the cream of the required fat content ready.
