This recipe is one of the most useful \u201cmagic tricks\u201d in home baking. Although technically an emulsion of milk and butter, the visual result and consistency are the same as store-bought whipped cream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perfect if you want to decorate a dessert or serve it with strawberries and realize you don\u2019t have any cream in the fridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\ud83e\udd5b Ingredients (Only 2 items)
1 glass of whole milk (about 250 ml). It is vital that it is whole milk so that the fat contributes to the structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
200 g of unsalted butter. Butter is essentially the fat that milk needs to achieve its creamy consistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\ud83e\udd63 Step by Step in 10 Minutes<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Melt
Cut the butter into cubes and place in a saucepan with the milk. Heat over medium-low heat. Do not let it boil; the butter should just melt completely and mix with the warm milk.
Emulsification (The Secret)
Pour the mixture into a blender or hand mixer. Blend on high speed for 2-3 minutes. This step is essential to break the butterfat into small particles and mix it stably with the milk.
The Heat Shock
Pour the mixture into a container and let it cool to room temperature. Then put it in the freezer for 10-15 minutes (or in the refrigerator for a few hours if you are not in a hurry). It needs to be very, very cold to whip properly.
The final whipping
Take the mixture out of the freezer. You will now see that it has the consistency of whipped cream. Use an electric whisk and whip as usual. After a few minutes you will have stiff peaks.
Why does it work without sugar?
Milk and butter already contain lactose (a natural sugar found in milk), which gives it a mild and delicate taste. Without refined sugar, you will get a much more versatile cream that will bring out the flavor of the fruit or cake you are using it for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tips for professional results:
Problem Solution
It will not whip The mixture is not cold enough. Chill the metal bowl before whipping.
Curdling You have overbeaten and are making butter again. As soon as you see peaks, stop.
Flat taste Add a few drops of natural vanilla extract for a wonderful aroma without using sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
