Homemade Butter

Good and honest butter can be made at home. No churn needed! You can use a stand mixer or hand mixer, a blander, even a jar with a lid. Homemade butter has no additives and you know where it comes from. It doesn't look like the one you buy at the store - it’s softer and is a very pale colour. Unsalted should be eaten within 3-4 days but if you want to preserve it for at least one week you need to add some salt. Butter made from scratch is unbeatable and freshly made tastes heavenly. As Julia Child once said, “With enough butter, anything is good”. I agree with her on that so use my homemade butter every day for spreading, baking, cooking and frying.  Find the recipe here...
