Midge61 beat me to it, you don't need a churn to make butter, your mixer will do fine. Just be careful when it starts to form - here's a step-by-step guide.
Could I also suggest a nice soda bread to use up the buttermilk? It's very easy to make and very popular here in Ireland. Here's a nice recipe for white and brown soda bread. You could make scones either, nice for mid-morning snacks.
I'm intrigued, why the sudden interest in HM butter? Did Tesco's have a big glut of whoopsied cream late on Christmas Eve?I'm an adult and I can eat whatever I want whenever I want and I wish someone would take this power from me.

No updates today from julieq, wonder what happened with the butter experiment? :eek:0

Buttermilk makes the most delicious scones as well. If you really had a surplus you could put some in the BM in place of water to avoid wasting it.[SIZE=-1]"Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad"[/SIZE]

Just bumping this up.
Anyone heard from Julieq recently ?
I'm getting a bit worried about her state of mind and we're missing two days worth of updates !0 -
Indeed - has she been danced on or lorded over to the point at which she can't get to the computer.
And swans can break your arm, you know!

So has Julie
a. been so thrilled by the gifts that she's run off with her ex?
or
b. left home in an attempt to get away from the unwanted livestock
of
c. upset her neighbours so much she's had to leave home, taking her livestock and 'guests' with her?
or
d. been dealing with the council/RSPCA etc in an attempt to explain the sudden conversion of her home to a smallholding/slaughterhouse with a small hotel attached?0 -
Or e) Has she been pecked to death like some re-enactment of the film 'The Birds'?:eek:
Or f) Has she been sectioned under the mental health act?:eek:
or g) Should we be sectioned under the mental health act?

I'm thinking 'g' is the right answer... don't throw the string away. You always need string!

My theory is she's been nobbled by the noise pollution people - all those birds must've made a heck of a racket, and now she's getting people turning up as well....And if rumour is to be believed, some of them may have musical instruments with them.

hark ......can you hear that? ...... is that the tinkling of dozens of little by-laws being broken?... don't throw the string away. You always need string!
