    The staff type of churns are what you most often find in antique shops around here, though as the video notes, people started using the tabletop creamers as they became available.
    How the butter in Ireland is different than in the U.S. is the "souring" time before the cream is separated. This makes a good-tasting butter that is very different than the average butter in the U.S., and if you haven't tasted Irish (or other European) butter, give it a try. There are a handful of U.S. dairies that process butter the European way, but its just not as popular here. I find Irish butter a step above all others.

    • @sallymoen6371
      @sallymoen6371 2 роки тому +1

      No it doesnt. The process is very similar to yogurt, in that they are using the lacto bacteria to make a good taste. Its hard to imagine how anybody decided to do this the first time, but it works. I think Wikipedia has an article on Making European style butter, or Making Irish butter. Theres alot more information worth reading about this subject.

    • @azerosblank5036
      @azerosblank5036 2 роки тому

      @@sallymoen6371 From what I understand of yogurt, you inoculate a small culture of the yogurt into the milk and let it sit out. The milk doesn't spoil because the lacto bacteria from the yogurt out competes whatever other bacteria that might spoil the milk. But I don't understand the process in this video, because I don't think anything was added in it. Just plain curiosity here. Online search results usually link me to modern day butter making, but very little on how it was done (detail) in the past.

    If the milk was too cold or too hot or if there was thunder in the air the butter wouldnt form itwas also believed that if you had neglected to give a taste of the previous churning to the Little People you could churn it from morning to night but no butter would form. Of the four qouted reasons this last one was the most frequently blamed.
