Odell's Clarified Butter

Source: Odell's
ODELL'S has been selling Clarified Butter to the concession and restaurant industries for over 30 years. A by-product of fresh raw milk, this unique product requires sophisticated and costly equipment to manufacture this high quality finished product.

"Anhydrous Milkfat" is the name given this product in military specification MIL-M-3233. In commercial channels, the product is known as "Anhydrous Butterfat", "Anhydrous Milk Fat", "Clarified Butter", or "Concentrated Butter".

Clarified Butter was originally developed in the Quartermaster Food and Container Institute for the Armed Forces. It was designed specifically for use in the manufacture of dairy products with special emphasis on storage life for the Armed Forces overseas. Mixed with non-fat dry milk powder and other ingredients, it supplied the butterfat source in whole milk, ice cream, cottage cheese, and other specialty dairy products.
