Little Miss had been learning about making butter at school and wanted to show us how to do it. When she saw the special Jersey full cream milk while we were food shopping, I just had to get it for her. (If I hadn't, my life wouldn't have been worth living, believe me).So here is the method. Put your milk in a screw-top jar. (Tip: Make sure it is screwed tight shut). Then shake the jar vigorously for a few minutes. Empty the jar through a tea strainer, put the strained milk back in the jar and repeat until you don't get any more solids forming. There you have it - easy-peasy. We all had a taste. Yummy! The left over butter got shaped into a little pat and put in the fridge. It was just the thing for our steamed baby new potatoes at lunch today.
