You tell me- is there anything sexier and cooler than making your own butter? I mean- I had no idea how easy the process is. All you need is one ingredient and a mixer. That’s all. The quality of the butter obviously depends on the quality of the milk (heavy cream). I got mine from the farmers market next to my house. Locally sourced, organic, and romantic. The taste is incredible and you can add so many flavors to it- spices, salt, herbs, seaweed, and much other cool stuff. Go and get your heavy cream and make your butter right now!
Stand mixer
Whisk attachment
In a stand mixer’s bowl pour in all the heavy cream. Attach the whisk attachment.
Start to beat the heavy cream at low-medium speed (speed 4 in KitchenAid).
Once the cream starts to thicken- up the speed of the mixer to the 7-8 speed. Using a spatula- scrape the side of the bowl and keep whisking.
Beat the cream until you notice the butterfat separating from the buttermilk. Then lower the speed of the mixer- it will start to get messy. Once the butterfat coagulates and sticks to the whisk, you can drain off the buttermilk into a jar and use it later on.
Remove the butter from the whisk.
Place the butter in iced water and squeeze the butter to remove any excess liquid.
Then place it in any container you have in your kitchen. I used a small cheese mold because I like the shape it gives to the butter.
Place in the fridge until the butter cools down completely.
Take out from the mold, wrap with baking paper or eat it all immediately with friends and family!
YASSS!
