How to Make Butter in a Jar


Description

Fresh, homemade butter in just a few minutes using whatever jar you have lying around whipping cream.  It really is that simple!


Ingredients

Whipping Cream

Jar with a lid

Ice cold water

Pinch of salt


Instructions

Half fill your jar with whipping cream and put on lid tightly.

Shake for around 7 minutes until it separates into butter and buttermilk.

Strain the buttermilk.  Pour in some icy cold water, shake again to rinse then discard the water.

Mix the salt into the butter.

Notes

The bigger the jar the longer it will take.  I used a 370g jam jar and it took 7 minutes.

Keep the buttermilk to use in other recipes.

Salt helps preserve the butter so will last longer, but omit if you need unsalted butter.
