Butter

  • Thanks everyone!! :D I shall definitely investigate further and give it a go.

    We often see huge tubs of cream marked down because they're near their sell-by date and wish we had a use for it - other than directly applying it to the hips, of course. ;)

    Butter and margarine both freeze well :D Cream will freeze if whipped first (but not beaten or bound and gagged!) :)

    Home made butter?? I'm intrigued!! Is there a thread somewhere that details how to do it? We prefer the unsalted stuff - and making it yourself guarantees that's how it is. :)

    it's also an economical way of using double cream that is on the reduced counter ;)
