He goes too light on the salt.
3 different recipes.
The basic idea.
Whip the cream into butter, crain the butter milk, add the salt and mix through.
He adds just sprinkle and does not mix it through.
Salt has a definitely beneficial preservative effect.
Salt is made up of just under 40% sodium and just over 60% chloride by weight, so 10 g contains 4g of sodium and 6 grams of chloride.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2.5 litres (4 pints) double cream
2 tbsp live natural yogurt
2 tbsp fine sea salt
Keep working until the butter is clean and dry. Add the 2 tablespoons of salt to the butter (or at least 2 per cent of the butter’s weight in salt)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Most commercial salted butters:
Typically contain 5.5 grams of salt per 100 grams of butter - give or take a bit.
Or 1 small heaped teaspoon of salt per 100 grams.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The salt content has a definite say so on the shelf life of butter - as does storage temperature (cold) and protecting the butter from oxygen - by paper coated foil wrapping....
Cool. I have one of those...
Butter Milk is fucking YUMMY.
So if freshly made butter.
Back in the most backward place on the planet - my homelands - when we wanted butter, we just shook the cow.
It seemed easier that way.
