Homemade butter
1 servings
Ingredients
Quantity | Ingredient | |
---|---|---|
1 | cup | Heavy whipping cream |
½ | cup | Water |
2 | Ice cubes |
Directions
Fit the steel knife blade into the work bowl of your food processor.
Process cream until whipped, about 30 seconds. Add water and ice cubes. Process 2-3 minutes until butter has formed and separated from the liquid. No harm will be done if you overwhip this mixture. Pour butter and liquid into a fine strainer. With a rubber spatula, gently press butter against sieve to remove excess moisture. DO NOT press too hard or butter will go through strainer. Refrigerate butter in a covered container.
This makes ⅓ cup butter. If you prefer salted butter, add ⅛ teaspoon or less of salt to cream before processing.
