Know The Difference Between Butter, Margarine and Roombutter

Deskripsi gambar

Hi Peekay friends, they look similar but are not the same, that's an overview of the products we often use for cooking and baking, namely butter, margarine, butter and room butter. Peekay friends, do you often make mistakes in mentioning and using these products?

Actually butter is another name for butter. If margarine in English is called margarine, butter in English is butter. Then what about room butter, has the same name as butter, is this product actually the same? If butter is English for butter, roombutter is Dutch for butter. So all three lead to the same product, namely butter.

So that Peekay's friends are not mistaken in distinguishing them, let's look at the discussion.

Butter

Butter is a food made from animal fat, such as cow's milk. Butter contains trans fat and saturated fat.

In terms of color, butter is paler than margarine. Butter has a softer texture. The aroma is fragrant and has a savory taste. Butter usually has the type of unsalted butter. The difference is that salted butter contains salt, while unsalted butter does not contain salt at all.

Butter and butter are the same product. Meanwhile, room butter has a slight difference. Roombutter is a type of butter that has a sweeter aroma than regular butter, and a very soft texture. Therefore, roombutter is usually used as a premium cake or cookie mixture.

Margarine

Margarine is a food ingredient made from vegetable or plant fats, such as palm oil in general. Margarine has a small amount of unsaturated fat which is good for health.

In terms of color, margarine is brighter and looks brighter. The texture of margarine is harder and denser. Meanwhile, in terms of aroma, margarine is no more fragrant than butter.

The manufacturing process is different, some use a hydrogenation process, some without a hydrogenation process. Then what's the difference? The hydrogenation process is changing a liquid form to a solid using hydrogen gas. This process can produce trans fats (unsaturated fats).

Whereas without the hydrogenation process it can be made by other methods, such as by using naturally solid vegetable oil, or by processing it with crystallization or emulsification techniques. Without the hydrogenation process, margarine has a lower saturated fat and cholesterol content.

So it's quite clear, Peekay friends, the differences between butter, margarine, shortening and roombutter. Butter and roombutter refer to the same product, namely butter, only the terms differ. However, roombutter has a slight difference in the quality of the butter. Butter is made from animal fat that comes from milk. Meanwhile, margarine is made from vegetable fats which generally come from palm oil.
