How to cook deliciously - Homemade Butter
1 . Stage
In the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Increase mixer speed to medium-high and continue to beat until cream starts to break down again and separates into a liquid and small pieces of butter, 12 to 15 minutes total.
2 . Stage
Transfer solid butter pieces to cheesecloth and squeeze out as much buttermilk as possible; reserve buttermilk for another use. Scrape butter out of cheesecloth and run under cold water, squeezing out excess liquid, until water runs clear.
3 . Stage
Wrap butter in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container and refrigerate up to 3 weeks.
4 . Stage
To make flavored butter, in a medium bowl, mix desired flavors into room-temperature butter. Transfer butter to plastic wrap and roll into a log. Refrigerate up to 2 weeks.
