What is whey powder??
Answers:
During the cheese making process, a coagulant (usually rennet) is added to milk, which makes it curdle. The solids are the curds, and the liquid is the whey.
Whey powder is this very liquid, dehydrated into a powder.
"Little Miss Muffet, sat on her tuffet. Eating her curds and whey."
Whey is what is left after butter is made from cream. The curds become butter and the whey is the watery liquid that remains. Whey powder is the liquid cooked down and then dried.
I have seen the word 'whey' misused when referring to ingredients in Protein Powder at gyms and health clubs. In that case, it is nothing more than dried egg whites, finely powdered. Not true whey.
it's a fast dissolving protein great for building muscle
The healthier powder.. it's extracted from milk when skim milk
is made.The Instant skim milk has no whey powder in it . My Aunt used Whey powder to make her ice cream that she
sold.. I'm not telling you brand name of the ice craeam..obvious reasons!
