Cultured Butter is a rich, tangy, European-style butter made by fermenting cream with live bacterial cultures before churning. This process adds depth, complexity, and a slight tang that sets it apart from regular sweet cream butter.
Historically, cultured butter was the original style of butter enjoyed across Europe before refrigeration, as cream was naturally left to ferment before churning. Today, this traditional method is making a comeback for its superior flavour and creamy, spreadable texture.
Perfect for spreading on fresh bread, baking, or finishing off a dish, Cultured Butter is a favourite among home cooks and artisan bakers. The flavour can be further enhanced by ageing it slightly in the fridge, allowing the cultures to deepen the butter’s complexity.
