The useful answer

Butter Extract and the low FODMAP diet

Butter extract is an alcohol-based flavoring concentrated with artificial or natural butter-derived compounds. The extraction process removes all milk proteins, lactose, and fermentable carbohydrates entirely. This leaves behind pure aromatic esters that deliver flavor without digestive interference. IBS sufferers can use it to simulate rich dairy profiles safely in dairy-free baking.

Preparation & context

What can change the result?

Butter extract proves invaluable when creating vegan or lactose-free recipes that still demand rich mouthfeel. Use it sparingly, as the concentrated oils overpower delicate batter profiles quickly. Store it tightly sealed in a dark cabinet to preserve volatile flavor compounds long-term. Always verify the base solvent to ensure no high-FODMAP additives were introduced during manufacturing.
