INGREDIENT
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- ½ teaspoon salt (optional)
- Cold water (for washing butter)
INSTRUCTION
- Pour the heavy cream into a large mixing bowl.
- Beat with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium-high speed.
- First, the cream becomes whipped cream, then it separates into butter and buttermilk.
- Strain the buttermilk and save it for baking if desired.
- Wash the butter with cold water until the water runs clear.
- Add salt if you like salted butter.
- Shape the butter into a block or store in a container.
- Refrigerate and enjoy fresh homemade butter anytime!
TIPS
- Use cold heavy cream for the best results.
- Organic cream gives richer flavor and color.
- Don’t stop mixing too early — separation is normal.
- Store homemade butter in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
- Add garlic, herbs, or honey for flavored butter variations.
