I've been seeing "ultrafiltered milk" on ingredient labels lately. Is , this a new ingredient? How can I incorporate it into my new dairy-based beverages and other dairy products?

It has recently become a hot item with dairy processors and food and beverage manufacturers that are offering lower-carbohydrate versions of everything from milk to yogurt to ice cream. UF milk is a fluid ingredient that contains lower levels of lactose and higher levels of protein than regular milk. During the UF process, milk is passed through a membrane that separates the components by size. The larger milk proteins and milkfat become the retentate stream, or UF milk, while the water, lactose and milk minerals become the permeate stream. The dry version of this product is called milk protein concentrate.
