Description

Philadelphia Original Cooking Cream is a soft and creamy dairy ingredient, ideal for enhancing the flavor and texture of a wide variety of dishes, from sauces to stews and desserts. This cream has a thick consistency and a slightly tangy and delicate flavor, which adds richness without overpowering the other ingredients.

Its origin dates back to the Philadelphia brand, world-renowned for its cream cheese. Philadelphia cooking cream is specially formulated to withstand heat, making it perfect for recipes that require cooking without curdling or separating.

Among its properties, its high milk fat content stands out, providing creaminess, in addition to being a good source of calcium and protein. It is a simple alternative for enriching soups, pastas, risottos, creams, and many other culinary preparations.

In different Hispanic American countries, Philadelphia cooking cream can also be found under similar names or synonyms such as cooking milk cream, cooking cream, thick cream, or simply sour cooking cream, although the latter has a more acidic flavor. However, the Philadelphia brand is synonymous with quality, and its cooking version is widely recognized for its unique texture and flavor.
