We had a lot of fun making yummy homemade butter this week!
Supplies needed:
- heavy cream
- empty baby food jar
- pinch of salt
- marble
Fill the container up about half way, you want to make sure and leave enough space for it to shake around.
Add just a pinch of salt.
Drop your marble in and screw the lid on tight!
And then start shaking!! It took about ten minutes and gave the girls and good workout:)
The butter will start to clump together and form a ball, and that's how you know it's done. Then you pour off the buttermilk and save to make something yummy later.
Give it a taste to see how fresh and creamy it is.
We spread it on our Johnny cakes and rolls.
Love the idea of jumping on a trampoline while shaking up the butter! And we just made homemade butter last week at an activity - but we didn't do the marble - I've never heard of that - but I see the wisdom in it!!! Thanks for idea!!!
ReplyDeleteL was so excited to get her dad to try the butter. :) I had never done the marble either, but I think it helped the kids keep the jar moving (since they heard the marble moving around).
