Cut the butter and buttermilk apart:
Cut the butter and buttermilk apart:
Pour out the buttermilk (save it for baking or cooking!) when the butter and buttermilk have separated.
Rinse the Butter: Run cold water over the butter to get rid of any leftover buttermilk. Press the butter and squeeze out as much buttermilk as you can using a spatula or your fingertips. In order to prolong the butter’s shelf life, this step is essential.
Season and Store: You may sprinkle a little salt on top of your butter and stir well. Using parchment paper, form the butter into a shape or transfer it to a clean container. Keep refrigerated.
