HOW TO MAKE BUTTER

HOW TO MAKE BUTTER hero image

Bread & Butter Winemaker Linda Trotta collaborated with her friend Sheana Davis, Buttermonger and Chef at Epicurean Connection, to develop a variety of deliciously simple recipes to pair with our wines.

As they worked through the entire process of crafting a variety of delicious butters to pair spectacularly with our wines, it occurred to Linda, “how do you actually make butter?”

Turns out, the process to make butter is fairly straightforward, and thanks to modern technology, no manual churning or shaking a jar for 45 minutes is required! Simply find high quality, non-ultra pasteurized whipping cream, pop it into a food processor, and watch cream turn into delicious, fresh butter in minutes. The result is a decidedly delicious spread that is sure to impress. Feel free to add salt or carry on to make one of our 2-3 ingredient butters.
