What makes really great butter? A little culture helps. We’re not talking about a night at the opera, but about the cherished micro-organisms, also found in yogurt and crème fraîche, which unleash depth and a pleasant tang in cream. Beyond the enviable culture-elicited flavor, butter is better when churned and churned and churned and... Lengthier churning lowers the moisture content, increasing the butterfat, and resulting in luxuriously creamy texture. And because one good churn deserves another, we’re bringing Trader Joe’s Cultured Salted Butter back to our dairy shelves, after a brief (and what some might call heartbreaking) hiatus. Trader Joe’s Cultured Salted Butter is lightly salted, subtly tangy, enviably creamy, and it’s made for us in French dairy country, Brittany. You can use it in any culinary application that calls for butter; this Butter shines served simply on its own and in baking recipes. Slather it atop a piece of toasted, thick bread, like our French Baguette, and take a bite—it’s an ethereal experience. It’s also wonderful enjoyed melted as a dip for mild, peppery Organic Radishes of Many Colors. And when it comes to baking, quite frankly, there is no better Butter for homemade cakes, cookies, pies, and especially ambitious endeavors like croissants.
