/ck/ - Food & Cooking

by the way butter boys ( the BTG name for ourselves) Rayles has these motherfuckers(picrel) for less than store brand right now. 3.50 right now each....I got like 6, they freeze good and its damn good butter.

>>17038271
For store bought I like kerri gold irish the best, second is cultured butter, third is sweet cream.
They're all good enough imo so I'm not one to complain if all I have regular is sweet cream.
Anyways
Thanks for reading my blog. Please like and subscribe.

>>17038271
>town
Tone

and that butter is fine, but nothing particularly special.

Look for a local dairy that makes their own butter if you want something local and (usually) high quality.

Kerry Gold is my go-to store-bought butter.

>>17038294
>deer butter
disgusting.

>>17038302
yeah i meant tone but there it is all wrong..... messed up the title card for /BTG/
anyhow i can get local veg and meats and eggs but dairy farms are few and far between in northern nv....or im blind to their existence

>>17038294
I too buy this on sale and freeze it. It's nice to keep 20 lbs of salted/unsalted assortment in the deep freeze. It's pretty good butter. Way better than the costco shit.

>>17038311
that shits delicious what are you on about.
you probably eat this shit and think its butter cause mommy put it on the table

>>17038323
speaking of freezing i gotta rotate that better to inside freezer I never remember i have so much in the deep freeze

>>17038324
Only the best of the best for me.

>>17038336
im asking you nicely but firmly to stop that.

>>17038271
I can’t stop eating it bros

I sometimes buy the good heavy cream at Kroger. The stuff in the glass bottle from the fancy dairy with no additives. It doesn't sell fast enough so it's often on WooHoo! sale. I culture it, make my own butter, and use the leftover buttermilk for other recipes. It's damn good butter.

>>17038355
never had it but why would you add canola oil to butter?
i kinda wanna add tallow to butter during churning now....

>>17038271
I actually bought that exact roll like 2 days ago and literally within the last hour fried some eggs and english muffins in it for dinner.
it was wicked good! Way better than I expected to be honest. IEven better than some of my local butter.

>>17038354
This is a butter thread bro.

>>17038362
I never remember to bring the glass bottle back to Rayles

>>17038364
It helps it spread easier

>>17038373
Lol. Same.

>>17038368
thanks man ill likely break down and buy it sometime soon and try it. was it fermented or American style btw?
>>17038370
country crock is not butter though its spread

>>17038383
Non-fermented, but extra buttery if that makes sense. Frying the eggs in a few tablespoons of butter made my kitchen smell like cookies.

>>17038382
its like 1.50 a bottle you got like 6 dollars in glass nice.

>>17038383
I always thought country crock was partially butter mixed with oils, like a half and half type of thing. Anyways, you should be making your own butter given how cheap and simple it is to do so.

>>17038380
think this is good its on sale right now too. >>17038394
nice gonna give it a shot

>>17038404
per the website ingrediants list .....

for original country crock.....there was no cow even close to the production of that stuff
Purified Water, Soybean Oil, Palm Kernel and Palm Oil, Salt, Lecithin (Soy), Vinegar, Natural Flavors, Vitamin A Palmitate, Beta Carotene (Color), Vitamin D3.


Imperial spread
Purified Water, Soybean Oil, Palm Kernel and Palm Oil, Salt, Lecithin (Soy), Mono and Diglycerides, Vinegar, Natural and Artificial Flavor, Vitamin A Palmitate, Beta Carotene (Color).

you gotta wonder if its $0.08 an oz vs even cheap butter at $0.22 an 0z that your paying mainly for the shipping and the container when it comes to margerin its so cheap.

this shit is actually more costly than butter

Organic Coconut Oil, Organic Cultured Cashew Milk (Filtered Water, Organic Cashews, Cultures), Filtered Water, Organic Sunflower Oil, Contains 2 Percent or Less of: Organic Sunflower Lecithin, Organic Cultured Dextrose, Natural Flavors Derived from Oregano, Flaxseed and Plums, Lactic Acid).

>>17038416
I know now that it isn't. But really though, how come you aren't making your own butter? It's very easy to do so and much more cost effective than waiting for the "good stuff" to go on sale.

>>17038429
That's vegan butter though, a necessity for those who are lactose intolerant and can't use the real stuff anymore.

>>17038429
It's usually available at Grocery Outlet for relatively cheap where I live.

>>17038429
We got some of that accidentally once. Had a coupon and cash back promotion, didn't see the vegan part. Not terrible if you're vegan I suppose. Definitely NOT butter, but edible and fairly tasty. Weird mouthfeel.

>light

>>17038439
>you aren't making your own butter?
honestly tim, my free time i spend witht he family gardening in the summer and friends. butter is great, but of the old world skills to be doing myself its just not on the list of time uses i want.
>>17038446
>>17038451
>>17038454
If its for a medical reason but it always feels like vegans that push this sort of stuff are always against long labels and such......vegan stuff seems less natural to me when it comes to anything but just veggies

>>17038446
>lactose intolerant and can't use the real stuff anymore.
Butter contains a mere 0.01 gram of lactose per tablespoon. As a comparison, a full 8-ounce glass of cow's milk has as much as 13 grams of lactose. Pic related ghee is lactose free.

>>17038472
You don't need to churn it, a standard mixer/hand mixer and ice water is all you need.

>>17038484
Nah, I've eaten cookies before with real butter and got some nasty diarrhea.

>>17038491
ill look into it. i make my own mayo usally so cant be to hard

>>17038495
a>>17038495
im gonna bet that was milk choclate or the like more than the butter if what >>17038484
says is true about the lactose. im trusting him as it seems like something us Butter boyz wouldn't lie about.

>>17038577
Came across a youtube video with step by step instructions. They use a hand mixer and keep mixing it till it starts to come together. Then they put it through a high powered blender/food processor and blend it till it really comes together. Then they wash that until the water isn't cloudy anymore. They then take that piece of butter and dip it in a cool water bath. Then they saran wrap it and that's it.

>>17038593
Who said anything about them being chocolate chip cookies? I've gone to restaurants were butter is used to cook foods and I dealt with the same thing.

>>17038627
>>17038593
>>17038495
Maybe it's something else you're allergic to in butter, because it contains essentially ZERO lactose. Look it up. I guess you could bee extremely sensitive.

>>17038648
Idk what it is, but my body cannot properly digest meat or dairy. Trust me, I tried before adhering to a restrictive diet. But in the long run it was best for me, given that due to the diet I also started eating healthier and thus began to shed a lot of weight. Yes, I know it's possible to do that eating dairy and meat, I'm not trying to say anything else.

>>17038662
glad you lost weight though man. keep up the efforts I suppose. Ill butter you up with compliments how about that buttery goodness

>>17038336
>>17038355
>>17038370
>>17038429
>>17038461

>>17038723
for sure my man
fake butter is the beast. turn to the light summon buttery goodness

>>17038703
Thanks, and I didn't mean to shit up your thread. Was just giving it free bumps.

>>17038761
ehhhh its kinda dying anyhow. a bumps a bump
butter boys 4 life

if you eat margarine you are fucked in the head

>>17038843
based thoughts expressed

>>17038843
If you care that other people eat margarine you are making a big deal out of nothing.

>>17038624
Here's the exact video you are referencing

https://youtu.be/arCzflCjzKQ

>>17038967
Yup, that one.

What is the best butter to purchase at Costco?

>>17038985
Kerrygold

>>17038985
i dont shop there but i went to their site. of what they offer kerry gold would be my bet. the kirkland organic unsalted and salted butters are likely good but id buy small and test it before you god deep on it.

>>17038967
yo that video makes it look very easy going to try it
>>17038983
>>17038624
thanks

>>17038271
For me its the deutsche Markenbutter. Cause of the amtliche Kontrolle.

>>17038996
Kirkland brand butter is better than any other store brand I've tried, but Kerrygold is still way better.

>>17038843
and probably a boomer

>>17038271
>take any old factory farmed crap in a box
>"amish"
>rubes line up to buy it
If I was amish I'd be going postal every time I saw that

>>17038985
If they have the butter that's in OPs pic it's better than kerrygold so get it. I would also remind you to ignore eireaboos if any should reply to your comments

Would you like some butter?

>>17042789
yes plz

>>17042796

>>17038336
>>17038324
>>17038355
>>17038461
>vegetable oil
Disgusting.
How is that allowed in the butter general?

>>17038484
I tried ghee once and it tasted funny. Used it as anal lube once too. That was a big mistake. Didn't realize it was salted.

>>17042893
zoo wee mama

had anyone got good ghee recommendations? I always just buy picrel cause its fairly cheap but looking for something a bit higher end

>>17042893
At least you probably tasted good

>>17038271
That butter is fuckin based, OP. Highly recommend it, I buy it all the time and it lasts a while.

>>17038336
my mom used to buy this as a kid exclusively, i grew up hating butter as a flavor until i was older and bought nicer butter like any free range or kerrygold

I have recently acquired what's called in my state a Homestead Food Operations license which allows me to sell you cu/ck/s all of the meme butter you're willing to pay me for, shipped by mail.
Meme butters like
>Bougie paprikabutter
>seaweedbutter like >>17042822 I have seaweed innafreezer rn
>belle delphine fartbutter, includes NFT of her farting on your stick of butter
>butter upon community request
>meme butters of any flavor
Does this sound like something /ck/ would go for? would you for a meme drop me like $15 to ship you a pound of butter? I know thats a lot but shipping it cold is expensive.
>I have a line on what one might think of as extremely fresh local dairy

>>17038271
If I'm consuming butter or using it to make ghee, what's the important of having it be rBST free?

>>17043355
Nothing. The hormones are good for you. I realized if I eat enough rBST laden food, I can skip my HRT.

>>17038495
Have you tried butter from other animals like sheep, or water buffalo? Sometimes people are just intolerrant of milk from regular cattle, and are fine with either a2 milk, or milk from other animals.

>>17042847
did you read the post next to it? its all mocking that fake shit.

>>17039844
where do they sell that?

>>17041005
if you were Amish you wouldn't see shit and you wouldn't care. your perspective is glitched

>>17043508
No, but stuff like that tends to be really expensive. I would think maybe goat milk butter I could find, but water buffalo sounds way too (idk the word i'm looking for atm). I went to a farmers market once and some guy selling cheese said that the raw cheese he sells wouldn't upset my stomach. Idk how true that is but I'm not about to drop over 10 dollary doos just to find out.

>>17043326
Same bro. I also used to think I hated milk until I tried whole milk for the first time at 23....turns out I just hate skim milk.

glad butter boyz are all about the life here

Made my own butter and extracted my own butter milk. Used buttermilk in a stew and butter for the bread I made to have with the stew. Amazing, literally takes 4 minutes and all you need is a bowl.

Never buying butter again, complete waste of money and even as our local butter shits on any american one I had back there, homemade on shits on it still.

I just get tillamook unsalted. Had this irish butter last month it just tasted like nothing

What's the real deal /ck/? How long can you leave butter out at room temp so it is soft and ready to spread? I am always afraid it will go rancid before I can use it.

Picked this stuff up at store the other day because I’m from Tipperary, pretty good but I still prefer Kerry gold. The French make good butter too
>>17046016
I’ve never kept butter in the fridge and it’s always fine to eat, never had any go rancid

I like Plugra, everything I cook with it comes out perfect. It has a little more butterfat than other brands.

>>17046016
as long as its stored properly and not just a block on your table collecting dust like 2 weeks

I normally get Kerrygold, but I tried this on a whim and it's really good too. And slightly cheaper than Kerrygold.

for me, it's bremykt

>>17043666
Most stores in Germany. It's not a brand but a grade (the highest).

>>17046016
Salted butter will stay fine at room temp indefinitely. The high fat content combined with salt makes it very hard for it to go rancid.

Unsalted butter usually only stays good at room temp for maybe a week or two.

>>17046443
It was on sale at my local store so I bought some today.

haven't tried it yet, but if it's anywhere close to Kerrygold then it wont be bad.

>>17046827
>Salted butter will stay fine at room temp indefinitely
lmao, pure bullshit.

At most you'll get a week out of a stick of butter at room temp.

If you genuinely can't taste a difference with salted butter that's been on the counter for 3-4 hours vs salted butter that's been out on the counter for a week, you're a tastelet faggot that shouldn't be making any sort of statements on this shit.

It wont grow bacteria because of the salt and pasteurization, but it WILL go rancid, for it to go rancid all it needs is to oxidize the fats, which happens with exposure to the air, and higher temps (like room temp) as well as exposed to light.

A butter bell can help as it keeps your butter in a sealed environment with no air, but even then it wont last more than 2-3 weeks before it starts to turn.


If you think salted butter doesn't go rancid, you're just a retard.

>>17038985
bought some of this at my costco recently but I haven't gotten around to using it yet

Best regular butter

>>17038271
I’ve heard it’s creamy

>>17038355
I like the one with olive oil

>>17046827
that is false
salted butter might last more by a day or two max its not heavy salt enough to stop spoilaige and even lard goes bad why would butter last longer

>>17048176
>2% more fat so it's "creamier"
>"full of beta carotene"
>can be """""""""healthier""""""""""
green horseshit this whole list top-to-bottom.

>>17038311
i don't think they make butter from the deer

>>17041005
>>17043675
actually a very insightful comment, that would be an unconscionable level of Pride for those folks.

>>17048229
>"full of beta carotene
why would it be weird that the irish cows diet would differ and thus their milk differs?

>>17048235
we Rumspringa now.

>>17038271
that butter fucking sucks.
kerrygold is the best all purpose butter I've had. shame its so damn expensive. better yet go get some butter from a local farm if you have the option.

>>17047111
do you enjoy the taste of Andrej Babiš cock?

>>17046906
>butter bell
sounds like an insult

>>17038271
I stocked up on butter this month, so I'm back to full capacity (actually 1 Lb over rn.), which is 29 Lbs. I keep 3 rows of 9 on the top shelf, and 2 in the door.

I started stockpiling butter like this about 2 years ago, because butter's expensive so I try to have a lot on hand so I don't run out.
Apart from picking up the smells in the fridge, butter will last forever in there, as long as the fridge keeps working.

I think I should start baking moar.

>>17050097
You should freeze it instead, lasts longer

I keep 5-10lbs of butter in the freezer and pull them out as needed.

>>17048176
>log shaped
>very creamy

made my own butter yesterday for the first time. Turned out good but I just want some tips for efficiently getting the butter milk from the butter, and then rinsing it clear with water. I was kneding it on the side of my mixing bowl a few times but I feel like there has to be a quicker and better way.

>>17050097
Make an assload of cookies for the holidays if you need to burn through the butter in a rush.

>>17038336
Top tier

i made some cultured butter about a month ago. so much better than anything i've gotten from a shop, even pepe saya which is made quite close to me and cultured too

any love for chubby farm girl Maine butter?

>>17043328
I would actually pay 15/lb for seaweed butter. Curious if it meets the hype, as a lover of both butter and seaweed

>>17050417
No space in freezer. The tray is full of 6 blocks of mozzarella when fully stocked (2.3 Kg each brick, so 13.8 Kg), and I use the gap in the middle under the shelf for ice cream or other stuff. The top shelf can host 12 ice cube trays when empty, but I don't like keeping them in there in case I need room. I put the odd frozen item I buy on the shelf there like ice cream or frozen pizzas.

Most of the fridge has specific items 'assigned' to the particular area for best use of space. On the right on the main shelf I keep a couple of 3-4 kg food containers, stacked. Usually it's mayo and sour cream on top, but soon I'll buy a 3 Kg bucket of feta for pizzas, so it'll be mayo with feta on top.

I have to treat my little fridge/freezer set like a game of Tetris to fit my food in.

>>17052903
I like my butter how I like my women. Uncultured.

>>17042959
>good ghee
Make your own out of kerrygold.
>cheap but still ghee
Make your own out of generic.

>>17048176
Irish butter is fucking disgusting. It doesnt even taste like butter

If you ain't buying raw milk butter, preferably grass fed. You don't know shit about butter. Same thing with cheeses.

>>17055001
I’m glad someone else feels this way. I don’t like it either. I can’t understand why people go apeshit over it
