making butter
right now i am trying to make butter with a creamer. I am shaking the creamer while i am typing this so it is hard to type. I dont think butter is made exactly this way, i think that there are more steps involved but this is the way I'm goin, quick and simple. well, not so quick.
The creamers are Hood Half & Half
I have creamers numbered 1,2,3. I just started 2,3 but i have been doing 1 for a while
I'll tell you how it goes when i finish.
6:38- about 55 minutes in, hand getting soar, creamers getting warmish. I believe there is a tiny bit less liquid...
6:46 pm- Just noticed cream congealing on edges.
7:02 pm- more cream, probably because of congealing chunks.
7:24 pm- my mom shook the creamers while i practiced piano for 20 minutes. There is a little less liquid and more congealing. The creamers are warmer probably because my mom was holding them and her hands are bigger and covered them more with her body heat.
I've been doing this now for 2 hrs approximately...
7:42 pm- more liquid, almost to the top. Probably because there are more chunks.
8:33 pm- I must give up for the night and hope that in the morning that I can still make butter. After shaking for a while in the morning I will open the creamers and see what I have. Right now there is little more progress that I see. There are small chunks in the creamers.
7:32 am- Yes! it sort of worked!
I took out all the butter from the creamers and put it into one creamer.
guess what?! it tastes like unsalted butter!
