butter

Butter is a dairy product made from the fat and protein components of churned cream
Butter is a dairy product made from the fat and protein components of churned cream. It is a semi-solid emulsion at room temperature, consisting of approximately 80% butterfat. It is used at room temperature as a spread, melted as a condiment, and used as an ingredient in baking, sauce making, pan frying, and other cooking procedures. It is made by churning milk or cream to separate the fat globules from the buttermilk. Most frequently made from cow's milk, butter can also be manufactured from the milk of other mammals, including sheep, goats, buffalo, and yaks.

    Recipe Tahinut Butter and Chutnelly Sandwich

    If you think this isn’t a serous entry, you don’t know me very well. Sometimes, what seems ridiculous can turn into the sublime. This isn't one of those times, but I like what came together here. You can certainly do this with commercially-available tahini and chutney, but what's the fun in...

    Compound Butters

    Do you make/use compound/flavored butters? I make them fairly frequently, using fresh herbs during the warm months and dried herbs in the colder months. I usually don't get too complex with them, and favorites are basil and dill. I'll also sometimes flavor butter with dried spices, etc. I'll...

    Recipe Garlic butter Naan

    Naan (Serves 2-3, may double or triple if desired) This was the softest, fluffiest naan I have ever made. I don't know if it's just the recipe itself or the fact that it ended up having an overnight rise/rest in the fridge as we changed our mind about dinner after I made the dough, or a combo...

    Brown butter crumbs/dust/powder

    Hi chaps, so I came across a nice idea today, when you heat butter to brown it and the solids settle in the bottom of the pan if you add half fat dried milk powder they add to the sediment and create a usable amount of "solids". Seperated from the clarified butter the two "ingredients" keep...

    Recipe Pirogis with Sage Butter

    I very nearly put "easy" in the title, as in "Easy Pirogis with Sage Butter" because this is a simplified version of a pirogi recipe: I microwaved the potato instead of roasting or boiling it, and I used wonton wrappers instead of making the dough. But, there's still a LOT going on here. I took...

    Recipe European Style Cultured Vegan Butter

    I came across this recipe years ago, and printed it out, but there isn't a reference to tell me where I got it from, so I can only guess, however, I think it most likely that I got it from here (Cultured European Style Vegan Butter). Over the years though, the totally pure white of this butter...

    Butter vs marge?

    This was discussed earlier but I thought it should have it own thread. Me, I'm butter only, never used marge. Butter is pure as far as I know and marge has additives, I don't like using additives so that's why butter floats my boat. Wife uses a olive oil marge, I don't know if that's better...
