Our butter was made every morning from the fresh cream from Betsy , she gave enough daily to completely separate the morning cream. And make about 1/4 to 1/2 pound of butter 🧈 every day. Great stuff, and she was a beautiful Jersey; the males and females both have horns, so yeah they are a protective species as well.

[@ReedFamilyFarm]

Love this tutorial! I feel officially within the "Laura Ingalls Wilder, Little House on the Prairie" circle of homesteaders now: I finally made homemade butter! How easy it is, indeed! Jill, it sure is a lot easier with the food processor than with the old-fashioned butter churn...I can only imagine how long that would take! So I will graciously say "thanks" to the modern conveniences like electricity and inventions like food processors and blenders, but my hat is off to the pioneers that made butter daily or weekly with out any of these conveniences! Thank you Jill for sharing your "Old-Fashioned on Purpose" life with us, it makes a positive difference every day!

[@BulletproofPastor]

Great tutorial. When Terry and I lived in Pennsylvania we bought our milk from the Amish and it came with a LOT of heavy cream. We just shook our cream into butter in a 1/2 gal jar and didn't need a marble. That cream was so heavy it didn't take long to break. Washing is the key to keeping longer in the fridge but we learned a trick to stretching it. The last wash had a bit of baking soda in the water that slowed the "souring" of the whey and our butter lasted noticeably longer without affecting the taste. Thanks.

[@WildWestNailBarn]

Thanks for the tip! About how long does it last in the fridge?

[@BulletproofPastor]

@@WildWestNailBarn That was about 43 years ago but I remember that it lasted longer than it took to use it up. What sours in the butter is the whey that gets trapped as small droplets in the butter. It will last longer as you wash it thoroughly.

[@joycegallowayparker9652]

@@BulletproofPastor If I want it salted, when do I add the salt, and how much do I add? Also, I'm a cake decorator, so I use a lot of butter for my buttercream frostings. But to get my frostings a much whiter color, I beat it for 7 to 10 minutes (the longer it's beaten, the lighter in color it becomes). So will this butter work well for that?

[@BulletproofPastor]

@@joycegallowayparker9652 We salted out butter just after the last wash (with a little baking soda added). It's been so long ago that I'm sure I can't remember but how we came to the right amount was to do a taste test with store bought salted butter. It also depends on how much butter you're making.

[@rosezingleman5007]

Thanks Jill. I’ve subbed to your channel for a long time. I was at the grocery outlet and scored 6 L of organic high butterfat cream for an amazing price-no additives at all. Of course as a child I overwhipped cream many times on Thanksgiving etc! But I’m so pleased with my purchase that I cannot wait to have homemade butter this year. Mmmm.

[@RetiredPilot]

when I was a kid my mother made butter on the farm. We used a round churn that we all had to turn. She would wrap it in cheese cloth and had a press to remove the whey. It was dome in round molds about a half pound I guess. Then progress spoiled this with the advent of margarine with little packets of food colour to make it yellow. But it didn't fool us, it wasn't butter.

[@lambgaming1347]

Churns are so cool!

[@amyahdocq8835]

Oh! I remember this lard coloured margarine with the orange pastille of colorant. I was a tiny toddler at that time but remember when mom was sitting me on the kitchen counter and I was looking at her mixing the colorant into the margarine and then she was adding salt... but... it was not butter and that colorant was pretty toxic!

[@juliegeorge8533]

I just made my first batch! And it did not need any salt to add flavour- it is just delish. And the buttermilk is another bonus for bread-making tomorrow xx

Straight from the cow to strainer, into cream separator & then the fridg for overnight cooling in the morning she goes straight into the food processor for 8-12 seconds for a pint of heavy cream(because we cream separate we do not have more than 3-4T buttermilk).. we then (wash) the butter 2-4xs with cold clean water. Pressing the water out. For every pound of butter 3/4-1tsp salt

Thank you for washing the better the proper way. I have been making butter for over 55 years and use my great grandmothers wood butter bowl and paddle. It almost makes me cringe when I see videos with people using their bare hands, squeezing the butter through cheese cloth or a large strainer. To me that is such a waste of butter, unsanitary and a total unnecessary process. It;s nice to see a video of a young person actually doing something right for a change. Enjoyed your video very much.

[@kevinbean3679]

Just watched, nice summary of butter process. Good thing we have blenders/ food processors and immersion blenders, not marbles in a bottle!! Other channels do not emphasize the washing process ( which is commercially more to remove buttermilk, I suppose dairy and FDA rules). I appreciate you emphasized this to extend the butter fridge life, even if only a week

[@Runningtorchbearer]

just tried this, it worked even on my very old blender I only did half of the cream and glad I did, with your suggestion of not too much in the blender. Worked, i might try flavourings like herbs or garlic or something??

I just watched another video today on canning butter for 75 minutes at 10 pounds pressure for pint jars. I saw other sizes used on other site. This was with store-bought butter and it lasts up to 5 years. I wonder if this would work with homemade butter? For OUR family, I'd just need 1/2 pints, but think of all the flavours - garlic butter, cinnamon butter, the list is endless.

[@orange281gt]

Have watched a few butter videos. Only seen one that strains the buttermilk off with cheesecloth. If you are wanting maximum buttermilk tip it into some cheesecloth then tightly wrap it to squeeze more out. I can't remember, but want to say he hung it above the bowl for about 30'ish minutes before washing it. Food processor seems like the less messy option compared to stand mixer.

[@vmae8899]

This was a good video thank you I cant wait to go make my own butter. I haven't made it since I was in grade school. We like to have cinnamon rolls croissants, biscuits for breakfast so I think some regular and homemade honey butter would be a nice addition also I've found it hard to find honey butter at the store!

[@UnPluggingThePlayer]

I think if yogurt is added to the milk it has to be cold or it will separate too much too quickly. I also think if adding 2 tablespoons of yogurt it has to be strained in a sieve after blenderizing it because it's a slightly different texture. Thanks so much for this great video, I will try it both ways now. Also, loved the other comment tip that suggested adding a little baking soda to the last wash. ✔

You can bake with it just like store bought. You jyst have to measure yourself or make your own sticks.

There is another way. Pour the cream into a bowl. Wash your hands, put one in and stir. After three mins it will thicken. Keep going. After 10mins goes grainy and yellow. Squeeze out buttermilk. When it is a mass wash in iced water. Salt and shape. Easy peasy.

I make homemade cultured butter using pasteurized (not UHT) heavy cream and Icelandic skyr or pasteurized (not UHT) buttermilk works well too.
