I followed your exact instructions WHILE I was watching your video and for the first time in my life, I MADE homemade butter. lol Thank you so much for this video! I am just so excited and giddy. I was so skeptical until I actually made it. Thank you thank you. I think if my Mom and Gramma and Grampa were alive, I think they would be laughing but proud of me.
Love this! This gave me a flashback to kindergarten when our teacher had our class sit in a circle and she put cream in a mason jar and we all took turns shaking and then passing the jar to the person next to us. We were all amazed that we made butter. One of the few things I remember from 40 some years ago. Thanks for the refresher course. Very cool! 😉 👍🏼 ❤️
We made this in my Girl Scout (Brownies) troop about 45 years ago. I know now that some people like to use a drop of yellow food coloring. Others like to use unsalted butter. Mine doesn't have to be yellow but it does need at least a pinch of salt. 😋
Thanks so much for this! You gave me the missing link I was looking for. I had made butter before in the past but it would not firm up well and started spoiling so quickly. Now after watching your video I realize that it still had too much butter milk left in it. I strained and washed off all the butter milk like you suggested and voila...perfect butter!! It tastes delicious and my family is so impressed!
Hello. My name is Cathie, and I just watched your video on how to make homemade butter. My Dad made homemade butter one Christmas when I was a girl, using the hand mixer. It was fantastic! Thank you so much.
You need to ripen your cream. Farm wives always left the cream out overnight in the churn to ripen. This gives the butter a much better flavor as well as letting it seperate much easier.
kimberly miller NO! You definitely don’t want to do that with pasteurized cream. Much better to get cream from a non factory farm source. Then you can get raw cream. Unless of course the state has declared that to be a crime in your area
My siblings and I also made butter like this when we were kids on the 1960s and early 1970s. We also used raw milk/cream for our butter - use to buy it from a local farmer in wide-mouth gallon jars...and each gallon would have like 2 inches of cream floating on the top of the milk. My mom also use to make a sour butter. She would let cream sit in the fridge and she would smell it every day. The first day she smelled it and it smelled slightly 'off' she turned it into butter. So we had the choice of sweet butter and sour butter. I rather liked the sour butter.
@@horsegirlb7120 I drink raw dairy all the time. And raw milk, the way it's produced now, the odds of it making any one sick is super super low. With approximately 9.4 million people drinking raw milk, that means you have about a 1 in 6 million chance of being hospitalized from drinking raw milk. Also, for about 15 years it was illegal to sell raw dairy in Idaho, but they dropped that law and we can once again get raw dairy. Our local store has raw milk being sold right along side 'brand name' pasteurized milk. You are under this concept that raw milk production now is like that from the time when Old McDonald didn't use sanitary methods in collecting milk, nor had to muck out the barns, TEST his cows and their milk for harmful bacteria...etc. Raw milk is better for your gut than that desert of white sugar water with some cream blended in so much that it can't form on top stuff they sale for milk. The raw milk dairymen, have their barns and milk production tested more often and their standards for keeping healthy clean cows is far greater than that of milk producers who know their milk is going to be sterilized and homogenized. Again, raw milk sold in stores, the dairymen have to pass stringent inspections and levels of sanitation. I drink raw milk as much as possible...and only because I'm poor I can't afford it, as the mass produced sterilized milk is cheaper.
@@StormyPeakEvery time you turn around, you have the younger generation telling you how you will die from something that should have killed your entire family back from it's beginnings lol Every single year that rolls by people are making things and processes more and more difficult and expensive with all their chemicals and gadgets they don't need but looks cool to talk about and show off lol Look at how meat use to be canned by water bath. You cooked the meat in the jars and it lasted for YEARS and it's something the old folks did and the Mennonites still do and you don't see them being drug into an emergency room. I just finished canning a whole case of meat using the water bath. It has to cook for a lot longer but I don't have 3 to 6 hundred dollars for a pressure canned.
I haven't thought about butter making since grade-school. Thank you for the memory and for the updated container size along with the rinsing steps which I do not recall from grade school!
We had a small dairy when I was litter in the 50s. My mom would put some raw milk in a crock bowl and cover it with cheesecloth and ut on the icebox. When the crealm rose to the top she ut that in a churn and we kids took turns using the dasher to finally make butter. We were so blessed to grow up in those times.
I just tried this and it was easy. After about seven minutes using roughly 4 oz of heavy cream I had a round ball of butter about twice the size of a golf ball. I added about a 1/4 thimble full of fine ground salt before shaking. Most of the salt flavor seemed to end up in the buttermilk (which didn't really taste good). The butter is pretty good. Thanks.
Here in Morocco we buy raw milk we put it on hit to kill bacteria then put it in the fridge so a skin forms on top and we collect them put them in the freezer and later we shake it like this to make homemade butter ....and it is so so good. Thanks for sharing your recepie 😻
@@GoHomeKamala I have no idea ....but this is how we make it ....plus the taste of the raw milk is so sour Does the silver make it less sour ??? Thanks for the information ☺
I just did it this morning! Super fun and easy to make. It only took me 10 minutes from to finish, I only had a half of pint of heavy cream. Will definitely do this again!
I did this years ago with my kids for a project after going to a dairy farm for a homeschool field trip and they loved it. Going to try it again with my younger kids who are older enough now, and since my favorite butter is no longer being sold.
This is great! Another fun activity to do with my grandkids when they visit... The treats I could make them using the butter are endless! Butter and honey biscuits come to mind first 😊 Thanks!
I whisk HWC in my KitchenAid and let it do the work. Don't forget that you can make fancier butters by adding different seasonings. I usually gift specialty butters or homemade jams for the holidays.
In my class my teacher in forth grade we made a cowgirl and cowboy day and we made biter and it was the best butter I ever tried thanks so much now I can do it ❤️
Me, too! We did it in Science class, and my teacher had us run around the building to “shake” the buttermilk. Afterward, he gave us crackers to spread the butter on. Delish!
My 1st grade teacher had her class get in a circle and we tooks turns shaking the jars of butter. She made us muffins with the butter that we made. I remember after all these years (45).
LOVE THAT YOU PUT YOUR YUMMY DELICIOUS RECIPE AND DIRECTIONS UNDERNEATH SO WE CAN HAVE THEM FOR LATER FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO CANNOT COOK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thank you. We smiled with you throughout. I remember shaking the Mason jar on grammas back porch back in the 50s. Thanks for the update on what I was doing.
I’m about to make some right now to put on some campfire potatoes. I just needed to double check how long it takes by jar. Thank you so much for this helpful video!!!!
This is nice. I didn’t know. Plus, I have some of those Yoplai Mini jars - the shortest ones and I have some of those stretch silicone lids that actually fit them, although it wasn’t planned. I can make a separately-flavored compound butter for each jar, which is perfect for me as, I live alone.
Thank you !! It worked! As a first time butter maker, here are some observations. Heavy whipping cream/ heavy cream by U.S. law must have a minimum 36%fat content. Regular whipping cream is 30%. The various brands do not show percentage. Use the heavy whipping cream. I used a 1 quart (32oz) Ball/Mason jar. Buy 1 pint (16 oz) cream so you have the jar half filled. I put the cream out of the fridge for about 1 hour. No sure if that made any difference. After about 2-3 minutes shaking, I could feel the cream getting a little thicker. After about 10-12 minutes I thought I was finished because I could see a ‘lump’ in the jar. I opened it. It kinda ‘looked’ like butter, but it looked more like slightly yellowed whipped cream. There was NO separation of butter and liquid. So I shook it another 2-3 minutes then magically saw butter AND some liquid (buttermilk). So the bottom line is you have to see the lump of butter AND some liquid. Use cold water to strain it through a strainer. Remove from the strainer and place it in a bowl to rinse. The water should be ‘refrigerator’ cold, not tap water. You can save the buttermilk if you want. I waited until the butter was rinsed to add salt, stirring with a fork. I used ¼ teaspoon of kosher salt, which has half the sodium of regular table salt. Haven’t tasted it on some bread but ¼ teaspoon tastes about right. The one pint of cream netted about 5 oz. of butter and about 8 oz buttermilk. I would suggest you make this a family affair with 2 adults with 32 oz jars, and the kids with the smaller babyfood jars, so you have more butter when done. I froze the butter in some empty 8oz butter/margarine tubs. Regards, Mike
Did this years ago and it worked perfectly. The only change I made was to put the new ball of fresh butter onto a square of clean unbleached muslin, twisted the top and kept squeezing the twisted top to remove as much water as possible. then stored it in the refrigerator.
just made it! it took a lot of shaking for mine, but I'd reccomend this to anyone looking for an old fashioned activity with a tasty result. plus, the possibilities are endless for the add-ins.
Did this in Elementary School in the 60s. A girl in my class brought some milk in from their cows. Passed a couple of jars around the class room shaking it until we had, and then we put the butter on saltines crackers. This video brought back good memories and made me think of simpler times. Thank You!
Great video Stay at Home Chef. My grand-daughter had a ton of fun making butter for her french toast, and learned a thing or two about how folks lived before super markets.
I've found that a cheap wide mouthed water bottle with the squeeze nozzle works great for this. Once your butter and buttermilk seperate, you can open the nozzle and gently squeeze the bottle and empty your buttermilk out into your container of choice.
Well I was successful the butter is great (I did cheat and used a mix master)...tomorrow I’m going to make buttermilk scones with the buttermilk...thanks so much
It was so cool to learn how to make butter in a jar via your childhood experiences. Thank you so much for sharing and I’ll be trying this process today. Thanks again!
My only thing is how much does all that cream cost?! Hehe. How can I make my own cream? But this is definitely cool. Running out to get cream right now to try for myself. I knew I saved those jars for a reason.
I know this is an older video. But I still have to say thank you so so much for your video! My wife and I have a new to us 20 acre farm that we JUST took over. Now neither of us is a so called “city slicker” but we don’t know everything about farming either. Now no matter all that we’re still excited to learn to get our hands dirty and to provide for our family.
I used the same sized jar and same quantity of heavy cream. It took 6 minutes to be whipped cream. 14 minutes for the whipped cream to separate and 16 for it to be butter. Be prepared for lots of shaking.
For homemade and to try that's fine but if you get tired and mess up, you can just buy Breakstone butter. It's good and comes salted and unsalted. It's very similar..
@@itsjustme5030 Glad it's not just me...My arms were falling off after almost 10 minutes. I finally just got excited I had salted whipped butter and it was yummy. Maybe I could have used it salted anyway with some caramel. haha
Thanks for that concise explanation and demo. I got given as a gift a 1 pound jar butter maker with two wooden balls in it to assist the ‘slam’ of the cream action. I have not used it yet but your tips have indeed inspired me! 👍🏻
I made butter like this most days, often more than once a day, when I was 13 or 14. Its all in the wrist and fingers and even when you get tired you know the result is gonna be worth it.
Worked great! :D I had tried whipping it up in the Nutri Bullet, but it almost instantly became really thick cream , stuck to the sides and the blades no longer reached the cream. I UA-camd making butter, and your video came up! moved it all to a large jar, shook the daylights out of it and presto! beautiful butter!
Just whack double cream in a food processor and turn it on........hey presto perfect butter will form, you'll also get some butter milk you can use to bake with if you want. Then towards the end after draining out the milk, add a lil salt to taste if you like me prefer salted butter.👍🏻 Just takes out the wrist action for those unable to do this method.
@@jaidynreneee People in the country buy their butter too. Probably no more of them make their own than people in the city do. It's not about where you live. It's about how enthusiastic you are about doing some things like this for yourself. I think there are more woke hippie city douche bags making butter than there are genuine old school country folk with cows and operational small farms doing it.
Thank you so much for sharing this! After i saw your video i was intrigued so i had to try it right away and OMG, it is so easy to make it! Apart from being an fun arm workout 🤣 it is also so satisfying to make it yourself! It taste fresh and delicious, i will hardly buy butter at the supermarket again.😍
I love fresh made butter I still make my own with antique butter Turner that screws on top of one gallon pickle jar I like the sour cream butter too which takes longer to make cuz you have to set it out for a couple days in a dark place
You could do smaller jars and put in herbs or garlic after the butters is made. I remember when in was you and going to a relative's house and she had us churn butter with a real churn not a jar. Love this. Thank you.
We did this in kindergarten at an assembly. The jar was passed around the whole circle and we were shown butter at the end 😊 good times. I'm a vegan now, don't miss it too much. What I didn't know was that's where buttermilk comes from😁 hurrah!
This is why I always read the comment section before asking questions! I've been a gearhead my whole life and I'm constantly thinking "If I _____________ I'd improve on this method." Only to find out the hard way that there are reasons my idea won't work. Now, what about a rubber ball? Thank you for the PSA. :)
Great info, ty. My next step is to clarify it to remove the impurities and solids. I use mostly ghee (clarified butter) in cooking and butter for other.

Quick tip, if you let the cream reach room temperature it will help with the separation. It takes me 3 minutes to make.

So we can just leave a carton of heavy cream on the counter overnight?

It was so cool to learn how to make butter in a jar via your childhood experiences. Thank you so much for sharing and I’ll be trying this process today. Thanks again!
You are so welcome!
nice. how long does it last in the fridge? and does it work w/ ultra-pasturized? tks.
Made this with my daughter today. We used the sea salt we made the week before. It was delicious, thank you.
You're fab!
I'll never run out of butter again brilliant
My only thing is how much does all that cream cost?! Hehe. How can I make my own cream?
But this is definitely cool. Running out to get cream right now to try for myself. I knew I saved those jars for a reason.
I know this is an older video. But I still have to say thank you so so much for your video! My wife and I have a new to us 20 acre farm that we JUST took over. Now neither of us is a so called “city slicker” but we don’t know everything about farming either. Now no matter all that we’re still excited to learn to get our hands dirty and to provide for our family.
couple this with a simple homemade bread recipe and you'll be kicking it like great grandma used to.
Well good news for you is that i do have some simple and delicous homemade bread recipes on this channel!
And that perfect time is now 😂
Make beer bread it’s SUPER simple
I used the same sized jar and same quantity of heavy cream. It took 6 minutes to be whipped cream. 14 minutes for the whipped cream to separate and 16 for it to be butter. Be prepared for lots of shaking.
Same experience for me.
Oh good, because I tried this and got whipped cream so we just ate that on ice cream instead. Didn't know we needed to keep going 😂
For homemade and to try that's fine but if you get tired and mess up, you can just buy Breakstone butter. It's good and comes salted and unsalted. It's very similar..
@@itsjustme5030 Glad it's not just me...My arms were falling off after almost 10 minutes. I finally just got excited I had salted whipped butter and it was yummy. Maybe I could have used it salted anyway with some caramel. haha
Maybe you did it with cold cream, it's better done with room temperature cream.
Thanks for that concise explanation and demo. I got given as a gift a 1 pound jar butter maker with two wooden balls in it to assist the ‘slam’ of the cream action. I have not used it yet but your tips have indeed inspired me! 👍🏻
That's just an awesome method to easily make butter! You're the best ! Subscribed!
I made butter like this most days, often more than once a day, when I was 13 or 14. Its all in the wrist and fingers and even when you get tired you know the result is gonna be worth it.
Cool you brought back some tearful memories 😊
Worked great! :D I had tried whipping it up in the Nutri Bullet, but it almost instantly became really thick cream , stuck to the sides and the blades no longer reached the cream. I UA-camd making butter, and your video came up! moved it all to a large jar, shook the daylights out of it and presto! beautiful butter!
haha the nutri bullet idea isn't bad! lot less shaking.
I learned this in my school today and it taste good
Woah, works! Took 6 minutes, and pure muscle. (But worth it.)!
Just whack double cream in a food processor and turn it on........hey presto perfect butter will form, you'll also get some butter milk you can use to bake with if you want.
Then towards the end after draining out the milk, add a lil salt to taste if you like me prefer salted butter.👍🏻
Just takes out the wrist action for those unable to do this method.
I was very impressed that this worked . It took alot more then 8 mins but it worked great .
WoW...I'm a city girl & who knew?
NO more store bought "butter" 4 me!
GR8 vid!!!
You don't have internet in the city?
@@Kube_Dog No dummy she ment she always bought her butter because she is a city girl
@@jaidynreneee People in the country buy their butter too. Probably no more of them make their own than people in the city do. It's not about where you live. It's about how enthusiastic you are about doing some things like this for yourself. I think there are more woke hippie city douche bags making butter than there are genuine old school country folk with cows and operational small farms doing it.
It'll be easier and less time consuming to just buy butter lmao
You'll buy cream anyways
Ridiculously simple! Can’t wait to try this! Thanks for the video!
You are welcome!
I just did this. My kids thought it was cool.
I remember makeing this and ice cream in school when I was younger. One of the most fun things ever
Thank you so much for sharing this! After i saw your video i was intrigued so i had to try it right away and OMG, it is so easy to make it! Apart from being an fun arm workout 🤣 it is also so satisfying to make it yourself! It taste fresh and delicious, i will hardly buy butter at the supermarket again.😍
This was a great DIY butter recipe for the family cant wait to try with the kids. Thank you for sharing.
You are welcome!
I'm going to use a paint mixer at the auto body shop to shake up the butter lol
Dark Horse haha I definitely though about the one Walmart uses while I did the shaking.
I thought bout the one at Lowe’s were they do the paint lol
Dark Horse way to go bro
That's exactly what i thought!😂😂😂
You my friend, are a legend
I love fresh made butter I still make my own with antique butter Turner that screws on top of one gallon pickle jar I like the sour cream butter too which takes longer to make cuz you have to set it out for a couple days in a dark place
Wow, I never knew it was that easy. Thank you so much!
You are welcome!
❤ I love how you go step by step
Butter is so delicious 😍 , thank you for this fun activity 😊
@Pineapples ?
Wow I remember doing it for my aunt as a child..tnx for bringing that memory back...love from India
This. is. AWESOME. I can't wait to try this!
How did it go? Did you do it?
@@Kube_Dog 1 yr later back at you man.
@@scorpion8rage I bet the butter is rancid by now.
@@Kube_Dog 🤣🤣🤣
This video is worth millions of dollars.
Thanks for sharing your story as well as this life tip! Make your own! Waste less food!
Omg, I witnessed a miracle!! Butter in a jar just by shaking the jar of heavy cream!! Hard to believe.
Wow this is way easy. And butter at the supermarket is so expensive.
You could do smaller jars and put in herbs or garlic after the butters is made.
I remember when in was you and going to a relative's house and she had us churn butter with a real churn not a jar.
Love this. Thank you.
You are welcome!
We did this in kindergarten at an assembly. The jar was passed around the whole circle and we were shown butter at the end 😊 good times. I'm a vegan now, don't miss it too much. What I didn't know was that's where buttermilk comes from😁 hurrah!
you can replicate this with coconut milk or cashew milk
When I was a kid my Big Moma let me help her make butter in her churn. All of the grandkids helped. She made the best butter!!!
Now that is a cool memory (:
I can't BELIEVE it's not butter
o no u didnt
I Kent beleive its not bodda..lol
It's not, its budder.
Lol
I used 36% fat, cold from the fridge and it took 30 min. of shaking. Tastes great! Next time I will try using room temp. cream.
This is literally a 2 in 1 like your Getting a workout AND butter 🤗👍
Haha that is a good way to think of it!
4 in 1, cause now you know how to make whipped cream and buttermilk too
@@lovinavargas1819 well yeah true for those who dont know how to make homemade buttermilk and whipped cream yeah
I made butter in a Mason jar this week, and I felt like a wizard!! It was SO good!
"Buttermilk Chocolate Cake?!"
My head exploded.
I subbed and liked, thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching (: Let me know when you try out the buttermilk chocolate cake!
I prefer a chocolate mayonnaise cake. Sooooo good.
I watched a Victorian one where they had a butter churn with a paddle and I think this one is easier.I def want to do this.
Wow so simple, Thank you!
Thanks for the recipe God bless you I'm from south Africa bye
PRO TIP ;)) Do NOT put a marble in the jar to help agitate unless you want a butter bath when the bottom of the jar pops !!
Have you done that?
😆
This is why I always read the comment section before asking questions!
I've been a gearhead my whole life and I'm constantly thinking "If I _____________ I'd improve on this method." Only to find out the hard way that there are reasons my idea won't work.
Now, what about a rubber ball?
Thank you for the PSA. :)
Actually those plastic or silicone balls they put in Guinness cans now work pretty well.
@@tnlongyrs those plastic or silicone balls they put in Guinness cans work well.
My Grandmother use to do this when I was growing up, we would take turns shaking the jar! great memories!❤️
That does sound like a great memory!
Or 1hour n 35 min's rolling the Mason jar on the floor while rocking in your rocking chair and crotcheting
😭🤣🤣
Possibly the best mental image I've had in days.
😍👌 love it
Sounds like an ADHD dream come true
YES it is. But don't forget the Saran wrap on the top of the jar before to put the lid on or else she'll have a mess.
And All while I am Chewing gum.
Great info, ty. My next step is to clarify it to remove the impurities and solids. I use mostly ghee (clarified butter) in cooking and butter for other.
Your husband or boyfriend must love you 😂
Butter on tap😆
That's exactly (not) what I was thinking. Butter on tap indeed
doonesbury 73 there are jokes about churning butter.
doonesbury 73 Shoot! I love her and am a female! I love the tips!
Lol
Wowow thanks for the video! No more buying butter!!!! I must try this!
Haha glad you like the recipe
