You can do it by hand in containers (or as often recommended, canning jars) as well..

If I was going to do this, I'd want the easy way.

Yup, I did it in the blender in just a couple of minutes, as shaking jars for 30 min. was not my idea of fun!

Coming right up, my friend! You'll be happy to know the milk came from Ayrshires and Jerseys, so it's high butterfat content.

The cool thing is, it's my first raw milk experience, got to meet all the cows first, and handpick out the bottles with the most cream in them. How fun is that?

It's a local farm, to which I've bought a monthly share in, so I'll get it weekly. Why didn't I do this sooner?!

My way was easier than the urls. I pulled the cream off the top yesterday, and let it sit for over 12 hours. Then threw it in the blender until it acquired some decent, soft form, threw in a bit of salt, blended again, then drained it out over several paper towels over a seive for a couple of hours. Squeezed out the excess liquid, and Voila, Butter! Can't get much easier than that.

What's more, if you add a tablespoon of the buttermilk to some of that cream and leave it out on your counter for 12 hours, you get Creme Fraiche - an amazing rich thickened cream with just a hint of tartness that can be used in soups, dips, desserts, or just about anything!

Status: offline 		gosh, the last time i made butter i must have been about six. i remember doing it at school as part of a project where we made our own bread and grew our own salad. i thought it was great fun that we had produced all these things to make our own sarnies.

i don't like milk, but do like cream, although it gives me a sore throat if i have too much, and can go nuts with real butter so long as it's megga fresh. the cream it's made from has to be megga fresh too or i can't bare it.

that said, it's propably a good job i can't get my hands on your butter or it wouldn't last long lol

well done you
