Clotted cream broke in the fridge

Clotted cream broke in the fridge - Containers of Ice Cream on Display

Yesterday, I purchased a package of Kaymak (the Turkish version of Devonshire clotted cream). Normally, it would act just like clotted cream. It was in the fridge when I purchased it and looked fine. I put it in the fridge at home, and it broke. Now, it's just a container of thick cream.

Why would that have happened? Can I rescue it? (Maybe use the cream and try to heat again?)



Best Answer

I believe you're talking about the breaking of emulsion. The solution is to simply whip it again, a food processor should also be fine for Kaymak.

What is the liquid leftover from clotted cream?

The semi-translucent liquid below is the whey. The buttery top layer and the creamy layer just below it (that sticks to the buttery crust) is what you put into a bowl. I stir it together a bit, then put in the fridge over night.

Can you whip up clotted cream?

Clotted cream is too thick to use in or on a cake and cannot be whipped like heavy cream. Whereas heavy and light cream can be cooked, clotted cream cannot.

Can you warm up clotted cream?

Here's what you do: Heat oven to 360F/182C. Pour clotted cream into a baking dish and cover with foil \u2013 I used 1 pint (2 cups / 450ml) of non-ultra pasteurized heavy cream. Place cream in oven.

Can you put clotted cream in coffee?

Most cream (such as heavy cream, whipping cream and clotted cream) is way too heavy for coffee, as it would generally overpower it in both flavor and texture.
