Dairy processing is the series of operations that transform raw milk into consumable dairy products. This process is critically important for grocery store dairy products for several reasons.
Raw milk from cows, goats, or sheep undergoes several key processing steps before reaching store shelves. First, it’s typically pasteurized by heating it to specific temperatures to kill harmful bacteria while preserving nutritional value. Many products are also homogenized, which prevents cream separation by breaking down fat globules for consistent texture.
