Dairy

Buffalo

Buffalo cream comes from high-fat water-buffalo milk—lush, white, and mild-sweet. South Asian and Italian buffalo dairies produce cream for desserts, rich cooking, and specialty dairy. Treat as a luxury pouring cream; whip if fat permits. Flavour is less yellow-buttery than Jersey cow cream and more neutral-sweet. Excellent in kulfi-style desserts and rich curries finished off heat.
