Thank you 😊 🙏 very well explained Dr.

Great video- I am hoping I will use less butter because it will spread more easily?

Normal price for fresh fish ranges between 45-70€/kg. However, if you choose to visit Mykonos or Santorini, expect EVERYTHING to be wildly overpriced (>3* normal price). Be prepared and always check prices BEFORE ordering!

I think this is the best instructional video about the use, the pros and the cons, of a butterbell.

I love butter! Lol! But seriously I am a pottery and its something useful that I can make.

Great and precise advice. Thank you

Great video! Thank you.

The fine print on the menu is per 100 grams , you see $15 on the menu with a picture of what it looks like then you tell the waiter to bring out a plate for two , the plate weighs 1 kilo making it 10x the $15 ....now your bill is 150 euros .....Z

They make plenty of butter containers for countertops that keep it fine. If you use it often for cooking it wont go bad.

All I need soft butter for is to spread it on bread or toast or muffins. Cold butter melts quickly for recipes in the oven or in a heated pan

Thank you for the info doctor!

I dont understand this. We're going to Platanias in August, I'm looking at the videos and places on the internet and everywhere there is a menu with prices at the entrance. If I order the food, the ditch I see there, how could they cheat me with it? I mean, I'm paying for what I ordered is on the menu.

stores it at room temperature and what is that temperature supposed to be? Room temperature is so vague and misleading

My best tip is to ask ex-pats where to eat, not the hotel or locals !! Greece is Full of restaurant SCAMs, especially the fresh fish prices where they mislead you with tiny writing under the menu...the price is for 100 grams, not the whole fish. Also, they mass produce many dishes, freeze, then microwave.....horrible. Fresh seafood is the best choice. Beware of drinks scams as well. Insist on having bottles of wine or bear opened in front of you or you will be served something cheaper and of lower quality than you paid for. In general its best to drink as little alcohol as possible, and keep hold of your valuables including your wits!

ouzo is def an acquired taste. Much like most alcohols.

I think this video is more helpful to avoid paying too much but doesn’t say very much about avoiding scams. The most important thing to do to avoid scams is check the bill. It’s not uncommon that they will add extra stuff if they can get away with it. Make sure to send away the bread if you don’t want it, so it’ll be easier to dispute when it appears on the bill. I’ve rarely had to deal with scams but I also rarely go to the touristy part of Greece. The time I did, they tried to add stuff to my bill. That’s the number one trick. Check the bill and confront them politely but firmly enough to give the message that you’re no fool.

We've been scammed, but I still love Greece. These tips are great.

In general nowdays all restaurants have the menu with pricing. At least as a greek Im not scammed in Restaurants. As he says just use common sense. If you think you may be scammed, just do not pay and call the police...

Πολύ ωραίος! Μια φιλική συμβουλή, επειδή το βίντεο προφανώς απευθύνεται σε αγγλόφωνους κι έχω κι εγώ ελληνική προφορά πολύ παρόμοια με τη δική σου, αυτό που έχω καταλάβει είναι ότι δεν τρέχει τίποτα με την προφορά και ούτε ασχολείται κανείς, εκτός από όταν αλλάζει το νόημα. Πχ στο 3:24 τη λέξη "catch" την είπες χωρίς παχύ "sh" στο τέλος, δηλαδή ακούστηκε σαν "cats". Το κάνουμε συχνά αυτό το λάθος οι Έλληνες :)

For 3? 2:15 - Here is another rule from local people. If there is a person inviting you in, DO NOT GO. Damn that's embarassing. Get yourself to a restaurant that can fill seats without the need of the "town crier". 2:50 NEVER gamble by eating mussels. No. Value your vacations, eat stuff that are 100% safe. 5:51 What a tragic thing to say. The tourist went there to calm down and have a nice vacation, not to be "inspector Gadget" with the trickery of a tourist-trap restaurant. If that's our mentality here, then tourists will not visit that place again and good for them. I will agree with you that it is their fault that they went there in the first place. I am Greek and I wouldn't set foot on most of our islands because they do not really respect the visitor and view them as walking wallets. 6:18 Αν εξαιρέσεις το νοίκι, θα σου έλεγα τώρα αν πληρώνουν για καλύτερα υλικά ή καλύτερους και ακριβότερους υπαλλήλους, που τους έχουνε συνήθως να μένουν σε αποθήκες. 6:22 Δηλαδή επειδή αυτοί δεν γουστάρουν να εξελιχθούν και να έχουν τουρισμό όλο το χρόνο, θα πρέπει να ξηλωθεί ο τουρίστας τα διπλά; Και το λέμε και δεν ντρεπόμαστε; You are right though. There is a choice for every budget, which is why this year I am going to South France. I booked my flight in February so the whole round trip will cost me 150 euros. I will also be attending a convention so I got an amazing price for a one-week stay for a room there and it will cost me 18 euros per day. I pity those that will go to our islands and pay a sack of money to the tourist-traps.

Πολύ σωστός! It's mostly common sense, but sometimes places can catch tourists off guard. As mentioned, look out where the locals go to, and don't hesitate to ask people around, 99.9999% are helpful and happy to provide information.

Never had unsalted butter left out for months turn rancid.

ευχαριστώ

Where did you get your shirt from please? Lovely video.

we have alwaya left our butter out in a butter dish (covered, but not sealed or air tight)... it's never gone rancid. does the bell REQUIRE water? or will it keep the same as it has always done in/on a butter dish?

What is the pickle container called? The butter bell doesn't hold enough butter, is there a butter bucket?

I love butter, do they make a butter bucket?😊

I love ouzo and thought it was so pretty, never realized it was an emulsion!

Somebody know wha is the difference between ouzu and sambuca?

We've always had a full stick or two in a dish on the counter. Once one stick is all that's left we add a new one. Even with butter out for a week or two, we've never had it change in taste, texture or color.

Ouzo is the most disgusting alcohol ive had. Tastes like black licorice lol

I just recently purchased a butter bell (I also got mine from Amazon). I bake sourdough bread about once a week and my husband and I love the convenience of soft butter for the sourdough toast alone! 😀 Soft butter is also convenient to make a grilled sandwich. Having the butter bell on the counter doesn't make us consume more butter...it just makes it more convenient when we do use it.

cool

They make salted butter in the UK!? That's amazing because nobody does that anywhere else in the world! Really, ask a foreigner and they'll be amazed at the novel idea of salted butter!

I would like to hear about appetite and supression information !!! I love my Butter Bell !

Thanks. I love butter. Instead of gain weight and fat. I loose weight.

Everything was well, except for the use of the Microwave. Thanks.

Add absinthe to it and it becomes absinthe! But why does it become warmer if you add cold water to it?

Good account of bpc

Is the butter meant to stay in contact with the water? Or should you leave an air pocket, or let one form when the bell isn’t full anymore?

Ευχαριστώ Γιατρέ :)

Doc, For a deep frying , we in Malaysia are more preferred palm oil. Its more stable in temperature and more cheaper comparable to other cooking oil. Its also more healthier.

I use mine only from late October till early April...because I live in the desert. It's just perfect for my guilty pleasure of Irish butter.

I have a mini butter bell. It's perfect for just one person.

My butter spoils in the bell after a few wks. What am I doing wrong??

i try ouzo without water it makes me feel in the cloud dizzy vomiting first it will be ok but 5 mins later you will feel the effects of this drink.

I use Ghee

Nice video. But the presenter pronounces SO MANY English words pronounced wrong!!!
