How-To | Homemade Butter – Oceanic Wilderness

I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time. My mom used to make it when she taught preschoolers and many blogs out there talk about making homemade butter. Most places I read said it would take 10-20 minutes but it took me an hour. I think separating it into two jars was the trick. You should give it a try sometime.

PS: Find a good movie to watch while doing this

I love making homemade butter. Well, I have only done it once, but I loved it! Yes, I believe you started out with too much liquid in the jar. I think 1/4 to 1/2 full and it would have happened a lot faster for you. I believe it needs room to crash around in the jar. I have also heard letting the cream sit out on the counter for many hours or over night can really help it come along faster.

Now I want to do it!
