To separate the butter, you should stop the churning process as soon as you see the separation. Using a spatula, collect the little clumps of butter and then transfer them to a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer that has been well cleaned. This will allow the buttermilk to drain out.
Before shaping the butter, it should be washed under cold water to eliminate any buttermilk that may be present. This will allow the butter to have a longer shelf life. The next step is to form the butter into the desired shape, which might be logs covered in parchment paper or rectangular blocks.
That’s it! Your homemade butter is waiting for you.
So there you have it: your very own handmade butter, which is very creamy and was created from a simple bowl of yogurt. In addition to being a culinary triumph, this butter is also a healthier option since it does not include any of the preservatives that are often present in commercial kinds.
