    So is homemade butter better than store bought? Y es of course it is! In this video let Uncle Matt show you how easy it is to make gorgeous creamy luxuriouys butter. All you need is a stand mixer and some high fat content cream, in the UK we call this double cream, in the States you call this heavy cream. As long as the cream is minimum 40% fat then you're all good to go.
    In this video Uncle Matt also makes some sinful garlic butter prawns with the homemade butter and it is seriously amaxing.
    I hope you try making homemade butter at home. Because quite honestly butter makes everything better.

    Agree homeade is better been doing it since I grew up on a dairy farm. But did slack off when I raised my family and bought it but am back to making my own and it buying Amish butter.

    Butter is its own food group imho, thank you for this. You look like a new man btw. Your Lady must be very proud of you 👍

      I do love butter so much, and since I cut back on the carbs and sugar I've realised that butter isn't as bad for you as advertised. And yes my lady is very happy with the new me, thank you and happy new year to you x

    Been doing this for some time. After removing the butter milk I pour iced water into the mixer bowl and setting it going again to help wash the butter, do this several times until the water is clear, then squeeze the butter dry. I also use the butter milk. Excellent video buddy.

      I like your technique, I imagine it's more effective than just squeezing it like I did. Thank you for the compliment

    Yay! Welcom back, Uncle Matt 😃 Good to start the year with a healthy option... though I do think you skimped on the butter...!

    I made butter and fresh bread last weekend. So delicious.
    Thanks for the lovely video.

      I bet you were so satisfied eating your own bread and butter? I do miss my sourdough bread as I've been doing low carbs for the last year

    That shrimp and butter looks amazing. My aunt used to have a seafood restaurant and she would make shrimp and butter. Now I'm hungry oh goodness and it's only 7:00 a.m. LOL 😂🤩🤣

    HAPPY NEW YEAR MATT. I DIDN'T KNOW HOW EASY IT IS TO MAKE BUTTER AND YOUR RIGHT EVERYTHING TASTES BETTER WITH BUTTER.

      Thanks Sean, yes the low carb and sugar diet works. I eat whenever I'm hungry just no wheat products, potato, rice or sugar. Which sucks at the beginning but I have discovered some alternatives such as bread and pasta and even an almond cake with sugar replacements which is really nice.

    So easy! 😮 I might have missed this, but if you add salt, how do you do that please? Also… those prawns look sinfully delicious! 😍

    • @unclemattscookerylessons

      When you're forming the butter into a log ( or whatever shape you prefer. Press the butter into a flat square shape, then sprinkle some salt evenly from a height.
      Then roll it back into chosen shape, and chill.

    "'Tis a far, far butter thing I do..." Sadly, where I live in Canada I have never seen cream at over 35%. Do you think it would still be worth trying?

    • @unclemattscookerylessons
      @unclemattscookerylessons  Год назад

      I just looked into that Lenny and the recommended fat content was 35%, I wonder if you melted a little butter to mix into the cream, would that work. Bit of an experiment but it could work?

    Hmmm. Looks yum. No salt?

    • @unclemattscookerylessons
      @unclemattscookerylessons  Год назад

      I wanted unsalted as I intend to cook with this butter rather than spreading on bread etc. But in the past I've sprinkled some flakey sea salt over the butter and worked it into the butter. I'm also making cafe du Paris butter next which has something like 20 ingredients combined.

    I've been making my own butter for a month or so now, but find the texture is slightly different from the commercially made product. Mine has a 'crumbly' texture, for want of a better term. Do you salt yours, Matt, and if so at what stage do you add it? Great video, so thanks very much for creating and uploading. All good wishes, Peter A :) :) :)

    • @unclemattscookerylessons
      @unclemattscookerylessons  Год назад +1

      Hi Peter
      Thanks for such a lovely comment, re the crumbly texture my only guess is maybe your not churning the cream until the butter milk is very thin and runny just like milk.
      Re when to add salt, I wait until I've sat the butter in iced water for a couple of minutes, then I flatten out the butter on paper, sprinkle some nice flakey salt over it and then form it into a log or whatever shape you chose.
      In this video I kept the butter unsalted as I used the same butter for the following video where I made cafe de Paris butter, you might like to see that one as it is so tasty.
      Best wishes to you

      @@unclemattscookerylessons Thank you Uncle Matt for your very comprehensive response; I'm most grateful. I'll churn a little longer next time! I also find that the butter is quite sticky, and adheres to almost everything - including the butter paddles I recently bought!! Take care - and thank you once again. All good wishes, Peter A :) :) :)

    Thanks for the video! How much does the quality of the cream matter? If I just buy the regular double cream from Tesco will it still taste alright?

    • @unclemattscookerylessons
      @unclemattscookerylessons  Год назад

      I've only ever used regular store cream and the result is great, I'm sure though that the better the cream the better the butter.
      So use Tesco cream as long as it's double cream as you need the fat content to be at least 40%

  • @MrHullRockers

    Matt, would you say that is cheaper than buying butter?

    • @unclemattscookerylessons
      @unclemattscookerylessons  Год назад

      Unless you find some reduced price cream no not really.
      It might be a tad cheaper this way, but not by much. What you do get however is the buttermilk, which is lovely. I made myself some chicken wings yesterday,marinaded the buttermilk. Thanks

    I'm not fond of homemade butter. Butter should be made, according to our tradition, out of sourred cream.

    • @unclemattscookerylessons
      @unclemattscookerylessons  Год назад

      I like the sound of that, I wonder if the butter has that lemon flavour in it, or if that flavour stays in the butter milk?
