] The bacteria metabolize lactose, the sugar naturally found in milk, into lactic acid. The acid gives filmjölk a sour taste and causes proteins in the milk, mainly casein, to coagulate, thus thickening the final product. The bacteria also produce a limited amount of diacetyl, which gives filmjölk its characteristic taste.cite web

] Filmjölk is similar to cultured buttermilk, kefir, or yoghurt in consistency, but fermented by different bacteria and thus has a slightly different taste. Compared with yoghurt, filmjölk tastes less sour. In Sweden, it is normally sold in 1-liter packages with live bacteria. The bacteria help maintain the balance between beneficial and harmful bacteria in the intestines. [cite web

Overview

In Nordic countries, filmjölk is commonly eaten during breakfast or as a snack between meals ("mellanmål") in the same manner as yoghurt, usually from a bowl with a spoon. It can be drunk but is not normally done so since the liquid is fairly thick. Filmjölk is often eaten with breakfast cereal, muesli or crushed crisp bread on top. Since plain filmjölk tastes somewhat sour, many people add sugar, jam, applesauce, cinnamon, fruits, and/or berries.

Manufactured filmjölk is made from pasteurised, homogenised, and standardised cow's milk. Although home made filmjölk has been around for a long time (written records from the 18th century speak of filmjölk-like products, but it has probably been around since the Viking Age or longer) [ [http://www.naringslivshistoria.se/templates/Arla/Article.aspx?id=1996&ArticleID=2182&CategoryID=&epslanguage=SV Även Linné åt filmjölk, www.naringslivshistoria.se] ] , it was first introduced to the Swedish market as a consumer product in 1931 by the Swedish dairy cooperative Arla.cite web

] The first filmjölk was unflavoured and contained 3% milkfat. Since the 1960s, different varieties of unflavoured filmjölk has been marketed in Swedish grocery stores. Långfil, a more elastic variant of filmjölk was introduced in 1965; lättfil, filmjölk with 0.5% milkfat was introduced in 1967; and mellanfil, filmjölk with 1.5% milkfat was introduced in 1990.cite web

Types of filmjölk in Sweden

In Sweden, there are six Swedish dairy cooperatives that produce filmjölk: Arla Foods, Falköpings Mejeri, Gefleortens Mejeri, Milko, Norrmejerier, and Skånemejerier. In addition, Wapnö AB, a Swedish dairy company, and Valio, a Finnish dairy company, also sell a limited variety of filmjölk in Sweden. Prior to the manufacture of filmjölk, many families made filmjölk at home.

Fil culture is a variety of bacteria from the species "Lactococcus lactis" and "Leuconostoc mesenteroides", e.g., Arla's fil culture contains "Lactococcus lactis" subsp. "lactis", "Lactococcus lactis" subsp. "cremoris", "Lactococcus lactis" biovar. "diacetylactis", and "Leuconostoc mesenteroides" subsp. "cremoris".cite web

Classical filmjölk variants

Probiotic filmjölk variants

Homemade filmjölk

To make filmjölk, a small amount of bacteria from an active batch of filmjölk is normally transferred to pasteurised milk and then left one to two days to ferment at room temperature or in a cool cellar. Pasteurised milk must be mixed with fil culture to create filmjölk because the naturally occurring bacteria in milk is killed during the pasteurization process.

A variant of filmjölk called "tätmjölk", "filtäte", "täte" or "långmjölk" is made by rubbing the inside of a container with plants of the genus "Drosera" (called "sileshår" in Swedish)cite web
