1 pint of heavy cream, which is equal to 2 cups. It is best to choose organic or grass-fed for the healthiest choice.
A little bit of salt (if desired): To enhance the taste.
You can use a stand mixer, hand mixer, food processor, or even a mason jar if you want to get some exercise!
HOW TO MAKE BUTTER AT HOME
Instructions in sequence:
Add the cream: Begin by pouring the heavy cream into the bowl of your stand mixer or a large mixing bowl if you are using a hand mixer.
Beat the cream: Set the mixer to medium-high. The cream will become whipped cream first. Keep beating the cream until it separates into butter and buttermilk. This task usually lasts 5 to 10 minutes.
Divide the butter from the buttermilk. After the butter and liquid have separated, remove the liquid (you can use it for baking or cooking!).
Wash the butter: To get rid of any leftover buttermilk, rinse the butter with cold water. Use a spatula or your hands to press the butter and remove as much liquid as you can. This is a very important step to make your butter last longer.
Season and Preserve: If desired, sprinkle a little salt into your butter and mix thoroughly. Put the butter in a new container or shape it using parchment paper. Keep in the fridge.
TIPS FOR GETTING THE BEST OUTCOMES
Use good cream: The better the cream, the better the butter. Cream from organic or grass-fed sources has the most delicious taste and is the healthiest option.
Room temperature cream: Allow your cream to warm up a bit before you begin. This makes the butter harden faster.
Enhance the taste: To make your butter more delicious, you can add herbs, garlic, or honey for a gourmet twist.
