Introduction: Homemade Flavoured Butters
Homemade Flavored Butters: 4 Simple Recipes
Soft and delicious, it is made of fine ingredients and lifts up a regular dish into something heavenly.
Step 1: Ingredients
- 1L/32 ounces Heavy cream or Whipping cream (with higher fat content)
- Smoked Salmon (grind into a paste)
- Parsley
- Garlic
- Sun-Dried Tomato & Basil
- Seeded Mustard
- Salt (optional)
Step 2: Homemade Butter
Method 1:
If you will use the Thermomix food processor, follow the next steps... Insert butterfly into mixing bowl. Pour 1 liter of cold Whipping cream and blend about 4 min. on speed 6. If your food processor begins to "dance" you can stop earlier because you butter is ready.
Method 2:
You can also use an electric hand mixer or stand mixer. Whip the cream until it separates into butter and buttermilk.
Method 3:
Take a plastic bottle or a jar, pour about a third of cream. And shake it 5 minutes, until the butter separates. If you are strong enough it should only take a minute or so)))
Method 4:
Also, you can skip the step of making butter, buy it, and all you need to do is allowing your butter to sit at room temperature until it's softened and add these ingredients to it.
Step 3: Pour Off the Buttermilk
In my case double cream didn't make buttermilk. From 1 litre of Whipping cream, I obtained 600 grams of butter.
In other cases, you have to completely strain the butter. It'll be better if you will rinse it few times in very cold water, until the water is clear, and then completely drain the butter.
Step 4: 4 Plates - 150 Grams Butter Each
Step 5: Smoked Salmon Flavored Butter
Step 6: Parsley & Garlic Flavored Butter
Step 7: Tomato & Basil Flavored Butter
Step 8: Mustard Flavored Butter
Step 9: Preserving
Cut a square of cling film or baking parchment. Roll it around the butter to form a sausage shape, then twist the ends to seal. The butter is now ready to be stored for up to a month in the freezer.

Making butter is also a great class project for the kids. Use heavy duty zip-lock baggies, pour approximately 1/2 - 1 cup heavy cream into each baggie, make sure it is sealed (you can also double bag it to keep accidents from happening), then let the kids start shaking their bags. It's great fun, and the kids won't believe how simple it is to make their own butter.

Does the butter freeze well? Is there any change to the consistency? I'm thinking of making these ahead of time for Christmas gifts.
Also, any suggestions for the amount of cinnamon to make cinnamon butter?

It's amazing: most flavored butters are soluble in carrier fat substrates, olive oil is most known as a frying carrier, and fresh whipped butter is the best for fresh unmodified eating.
Another carrier for spices not so well known, but extra popular food in Ukraine and Russia especially good with Vodka (*): is the salted "Salo"
(*) to be hard real russian Ushanka Cheburashka, drink medical cocktail: medical grade/chemistry clean C2H5OH + glucose/sextrose + Saline (bidistilled water with 0.9 NaCl)

isn't "salo" just raw frozen bacon?

Hi! “Salo” or “Сало» rus. Is not actually a bacon, is a back fat of a pig. Usually is dry salted and canned.
