It's a whole lot healthier than a lot of so called 'healthy' margarines with all their chemicals and preservatives etc. Just have to have butter in moderation that's all.<br />Was going through my old recipe books the other day and found a recipe to turn 1/2 lb butter into 1 lb. It had milk,gelatine and powdered milk. I have beaten olive oil into it to soften and make it go further.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02241487967149388009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603222641266424303.post-12607455916847237802013-09-20T10:53:59.552+10:002013-09-20T10:53:59.552+10:00I'm an early childhood educator and one mornin...I'm an early childhood educator and one morning during circle time I passed a baby food jar filled with whipping cream around and everybody got a turn to shake it and we had butter with crackers later for snack. sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01347522971743379131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603222641266424303.post-6510249922583461732013-09-20T08:41:38.752+10:002013-09-20T08:41:38.752+10:00I was whipping cream for scones once, got distract...I was whipping cream for scones once, got distracted, and yep, you guessed it! No salt so it was not really edible but hey, I've done it -- albeit accidentally! I remember asking DD one year what she wanted for her birthday celebration; her answer: crusty bread, strawberry jam and "real butter"!Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07760744006915967397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603222641266424303.post-30304256549878892642013-09-19T21:57:57.706+10:002013-09-19T21:57:57.706+10:00I LOVE butter.

Whith much adoration. And chocolate) and also brought back memories of Montessori School. We sat around a circle, singing something rhythmic, and passed a jar filled with cream (and closed tightly!) around the circle. Each child would shake shake shake the jar to the rhythm of the song, pass it along, and after about 14 hours we had butter! Okay, it didn't reallly take 14 hours, I just remember it that way. Best butter I have ever eaten. I bet yours was, too! I am impressed with you!Laura C. (elcie)https://www.blogger.com/profile/18238326679340700601noreply@blogger.com
