Butter Ideas
The best butter is always homemade I think, and with so many ideas out there on how to shoosh your butter, this recipe is just a great basic to have.
Quite some time ago now I shot some videos with the lovely Corinne Maunder from Thermoflix. If you haven’t checked out her YouTube channel yet, you really should. It is a lowcarb, Thermo-centric channel with more recipes being added if not frequently, on occasion and we have plans to collaborate together more often! SO...in the meantime you lucky Insiders, here is one set of recipes all rolled into one video for you. Hope you are ready to make your own butter, deliberately!!
