Jess you should do another video this summer when your cows are eating grass. It would be super cool to see the difference in the colors.
I used to be a 4th/5th grade teacher here in Oregon. And every year, during our Oregon Trail unit, my favorite activity to do with the kids was make Johnnycakes (corn-based pancakes) and homemade butter. 🧈 We'd all help mix the batter, and while I cooked the Johnnycakes, the kids would take turns shaking the jar of cream to make the butter. While we ate we'd talk about how the emigrants often hung their cream from the wagons and let the bumpy road do most the work. But, secretly, it was just my way of helping to demystify store-bought food for the next generation. I'd like to think that some of those kids (now, young adults) might think back to that day in grade school with Ms. Nowak and feel empowered to learn to make other commonplace store-bought foods in their own kitchens, too.
My second grade teacher had us make butter and butter milk. She also had window boxes for us to plant vegetables. We grew a salad and she brought in homemade bread for our freshly made butter. ❤ I will never forget Mrs. Morris!
I am in Oregon and used to be the 4th/5th 4h food and nutrition teacher in our little rural school. In the late winter when there was lots of energy to burn, we would do food science meets dance off. Everyone got their own jar of cream. They would dance/shake their jar. When the music stopped we would check the jar. When it separated we did a taste test. Then added salt and did a taste test. A fun 12 years.
@judifarrington9461 Yes! I used to love to grow radish and lettuce with my students each spring because they could actually get a harvest before summer break. I might have even convinced a couple of kids to like radishes, but not many. 🤷🏼♀️
I remember doing this as a kid, memory unlocked! I'm also in Oregon :)
I also am an early educator and have made butter with my children I loved your story.
Jessica you are incredibly blessed!! As a person who lives in an apartment in a major city I find the notion of milking a cow and using the cream to make butter incredibly romantic as well! 😂I’m sure as you said once you’re doing it daily it just becomes another chore but what a life!! I sometimes wish for that lovely life of chores and homesteading and wonder what’s holding me back. Likely because with every passing year I’m becoming older and my bones are creaking more and I make those grunting noises when I get up from a chair, but oh what a life it must be. So nice to be able to live vicariously through you!! Thank you for sharing! God bless🥰❤️🇨🇦🍁🙏🏻
I had no idea that a lot of heavy whipping cream and whipped creams contain carrageenan, even some organics have this, so read the labels if you're using these store bought products to make butter. Thanks Jess - love your new channel and cooking with you!
I've made my own in a mason jar using room temp, store bought whipping cream. It took about 18 minutes of shaking. It was a fun thing to do, but at the time, the whipping cream cost more than the bought butter. I imagine it tastes better when you have a dairy cow and milk of your own. 😊
I remember helping my mom make butter ... She would barter piano lessons for fresh milk (or homemade bread or fresh produce) with a less fortunate farm family. When they were milk rich, we had more cream than we knew what to do with - so we learned how to make butter! There is nothing better than fresh baked bread with homemade butter!!
I remember my grandma making butter on their farm when I was a little girl….she had the old hand churn…yes, I wish to this day I had it! When they moved to “town” and took the farm animals with them, she got an electric one. Butter tasted the same but to me it wasn’t…she made homemade biscuit every morning and the rounds of butter were kept in a domed holder….I haven’t had butter like that to this day. She was a hard working woman! She was about my age (74) when she they moved to town. She passed when she was two years older than I am now. She was the most amazing woman I have ever known. I miss her more than anyone I’ve ever lost. ❤❤❤
I am so enjoying “The Farmer’s Table.” It’s a wonderful addition to your family channels.
I remember making butter when I was in kindergarten. The teacher gave us all a saltine with a spread of it. It must have impressed me. I am 63 now and still remember. It is the best I have ever had.
I did it! I had cream left over from making your turkey with sausage and fig stuffing (the first time I’ve made any but my family recipe and I just turned 78). I used my kitchenaid with whisk and shield and was so excited that it did just as yours had done. Whipped cream and then it broke. I’m getting ready to leave town and thought the cream would spoil. Your video was a double win for me. Cream didn’t spoil and I got to learn a new ‘trick.’ Thanks.
As its summer down here in New Zealand I am enjoying homemade garlic butter on toast with my fresh Black Krim tomatoes, sea salt flakes and ground pepper.
Sublime summer breakfast x
So jealous! The snow is flying here in eastern part of the US….
Sounds divine!
One of the few experiences I remember vividly from kindergarten was sitting in a circle on the floor passing a quart glass milk bottle around taking turns shaking it! It seemed like magic to me that the cream turned into butter. As an adult teaching middle school I a suburban environment, I watched as some of my students had about that same experience. So many of our children (and adults, for that matter) have no idea where food comes from or what it’s actually made from. Thanks for sharing this butter-making process and bringing back that early memory to me!
I spent many an after noon at my Grandmother house sitting on the couch with a gallon jar rocking it back and forth until it became butter. I never thought of her and my Grandfather as homesteaders but I guess they were. They shaped my life into what I am today, not a homesteader but some one who gardens and raises chickens on my 40 acre farm. I remember many a homesteader lesson growing up without even knowing what we call homesteaders today. Nothing and when I say nothing went to waste at her home right down to pulling buttons and ripping out zippers because they could always be used again. I had a wonderful childhood learning the basic of living off the land.
I could watch you do just about anything. I enjoy the way you make me feel like I'm sitting in your kitchen having a chat.
P.s. I'm allergic to dairy and still watched your video.
Blessings
I agree wholeheartedly with this!
I remember making butter as a kid with my mom for fun, then on a farm tour in elementary school, and later in culinary school, and later, talking to some friends who had no idea how butter was made. I’m so glad you’re putting this video out there for those people who might not know the first thing about such a common staple food!
I have found that a lot of people don’t know how most of their food is made.
I love the idea of flavored butters - I’ve made garlic butter and honey butter, but herbs would be lovely stored in the freezer for next winter.
We made butter with my son's 2nd grade class. We shook it in a jar. The kids were amazed. Also that was ages ago. My son is now 19 =)
I’m starting at age 19yrs with my son. This will be my first time. Looking 👀 forward to it.
I so love this! My husband and I went to Easley, SC, this morning to pick up a transmission for my dad’s old truck that our son drives. If we had more time, we were going to go scope out Beulah and the downtown area, but it took us almost six hours to get home in central NC. I told my husband it was ok that I will go back down when you guys open up the store. I know his cousin will love to take the road trip with me. She loves you guys, too. Of course, living in NC finding raw milk is very hard. You have to know someone, and I don’t. All my friends use all of what they get from the few animals they have. I am hoping to find somewhere along the border where I can score some because I just really want to make some real butter. I want to see what real, unadulterated milk tastes like. My mother-in-law has always had digestive issues with pasteurized milk, but always was able to enjoy raw milk when she was young and that was the only way they could get it living out in the country. She is getting older, and her husband just entered rehab after having several strokes, so I am looking for some comfort for her. It will bring back so many lovely childhood memories in just a glass of milk. Such small things. If anyone out there in SC has your own cows and sells raw milk and lives near I95, please reach out. Love you, Jess and family. I always tell my husband that you are the daughter we never had. ❤
I tried making my own butter the summer before last summer when cream were really cheap but butter prices were going crazy. Really simple process, I thought it was really fun to try out. New skill unlocked 😊
My nephews are coming to visit in a couple of months and this would be a great project for us to do. I remember making butter in a mason jar as a little kid and was just amazed!! Thanks for sharing this and giving me this idea.
Absolutely loved this! Your new channel has become my favorite. I am a grandmother who cooks, but your cooking videos are wonderful. Hugs Jess❤
great and informative video Jess! i have 4 antique Dazey butter churns, ( 2, 4, 6 and 8 qt churns) i've made butter several times in the last few years using heavy whipping cream as i have no access to fresh cream. as long as the whipping cream is room temperature it usually takes less than 30 min to churn it. when i wash the butter, i put it in a flour sack cloth and run it under cold water, squeezing and working it til the water runs completely clear. i add pink salt to mine and i taste test it using saltine crackers. the purpose of using saltines is so when it tastes real salty, then i know i have enough salt in the butter and its not over salted. i think everyone should try making butter at least once! we make homemade apple butter in a copper kettle, hand churn real butter and bake a few loaves of fresh bread and have an afternoon of teaching friends and family how to do it! overwhelmingly everybody is impressed with it!
I just use my food processor . The lid means no decorating disasters. My daughter works in a supermarket warehouse and recently I was given 8 pints of cream as they overbought for xmas so gave it to staff for free.
I made 1.7kg of butter(3 3/4lb) in 20 minutes . It's a useful skill to have
Our most recent butter adventure was taking store bought heavy cream, culturing it following the Mary's Nest instructions, turning that into butter, AND THEN making Knox spread following Emmymade's instructions. IT IS AMAZING. The cultured butter was delicious on its own, but I've always wanted something homemade that was spreadable to replace margarine. Knox spread not only stretches the amount of butter, but it's spreadable from the fridge. Game changer for us and delicious on the homemade sourdough bread we're learning to make!
I am so glad you showed this in your Bosch mixer! I knew you had a while back but couldn't find the video when I was doing stand mixer research. I ended up with the same Bosch and NO MESS, I am soooo pleased with it.
The first person who taught me how to whip butter was my SPED teacher. On the days that she pulled me out. Bless that sweet lady. I have the knowledge but I didn’t think about it since it’s been so many years now. And with this video, it just jogged my memory. I think I would like to try that with some organic heavy cream. Cause I live in a suburb and can’t afford to get a cow. My lifestyle just wouldn’t allow me.
I honestly make my own butter because we like how I salt it better . So even though it's not cheaper my son likes it more, so I make it lol
A perfect reason to take it into your own hands!
Same here. A lot of grocery store butter, when clarified, tastes like a dirty grill. Either make it or buy from the Amish nearby.
How much salt do you use? I was thinking of trying this but am afraid to over salt
@@ThatKraZeeKanuck I use a good amount. I put some in, mix, taste, add, mix, taste until I get it to where we like it . Maybe about 2 tsp when I use 1 container of cream . I also use pink Himalayan or redmens real salt
Churning cream is a memory that I visit from my childhood. I was not a fan of the butter, but I did like making it. I have the wooden mold that we used. 😊❤
Me too. My grandmother and I did the churning together. Very good memory. ❤️
I grew up on a farm and can remember vividly my mom churning butter in a manual floor churn. Daddy had made her a custom “dasher” for the churn out of an old broom handle and a round piece of wood with holes in it. There is a very distinct sound the milk makes in the churn when it breaks. I didn’t realize it then but those were the best days of my life. I like to make flavored butters every now and then. I especially like tarragon butter to use on my steamed sweet corn fresh from the garden. Good on frozen corn on the cob too!
Ome hack that i saw fir making butter or just mixing liquids in the KitchenAid is to wrap saran wrap around the bowl and up over the top. Voila. No more spalshing. Thanks for the tutorial!
I remember watching my Grandmother churning butter with the old wooden churn. She was a strong lady. As a kid I tried it a couple times but never made it more than a couple minutes. My sister loved to drink the buttermilk but I didn't. I did love the butter though.
Challenge accepted! 😂🙂 I've never made butter before but I'll definitely start experimenting. Because I bake a lot, I use a ton of butter so maybe it'll be more cost effective to make it from scratch!
I love your sweater😍
Thanks!
We made butter with a hand churn, about 4 gallons at a time; it took us 3 kids about 2 hours of turning! Now I use my Cuisinart mixer when I can get fresh cream. Thanks for sharing🤗💗🇨🇦
Thank you for always keeping me company in the kitchen! It gets lonely in here with everyone at school or work. One day I'd love to have you over for coffee!
Love your new channel. I grew up on a farm and yes, we made homemade butter and it is delicious. Take care. Have a great new year.
I love making my own butter! My kitchen aid mixed takes so much longer than your Bosch! Definitely on my wish list!
When my kids were little, my grandpa and I shared a beautiful Guernsey cow. We made butter using an old-fashioned glass churn. I learned quickly that I am not a fan of cultured butter!🙃😃
Jess, this is fantastic! I am absolutely going to try it! I’ve been looking for a local resource for raw milk and cream and may have found one through a friend, in the meantime, I will just buy heavy cream at the store. Thanks so much for sharing!❤
I just found my grandmother's butter mold and her wooden paddle! Sadly I have no dairy animal nor do I plan to get one so I will display them in a place of honor! Her butter mold has flowers carved in the bottom and I remember it being on a dish on her table. The flowers were always the last to be used because the butter was cut away from all the sides leaving the decorated middle for last.
When I was starting my “homesteading” journey I made butter by shaking store bought cream in a jar. It took FOREVER!! But dang it was satisfying! 😆 I’ve been wanting a Bosch mixer since I saw Ruth Zimmermann use hers to make mashed potatoes for thanksgiving ❤ *sigh* soon soon… I need to focus on getting power at my off grid property first, I suppose! Thanks for sharing! You look beautiful today, all glowy and stuff! Love that sweater too! Catch ya later 😊
the first time i met my great grandmother on her South Dakota family farm, she was on the porch with a wooden butter churned and she was making butter. i was a city girl from san diego.
I just found myself nodding away when you were explaining about the sugars in the milk as if I was sitting at your counter and you were actually talking to me 🤣🤣
This is exactly the kind of videos I want to make
I Love how you say “Hello Darlin “!!
Had to come back and say thank you, I've made bread a couple times before but following this recipe has been my first time really successful at it. I know have one loaf I've been using for sandwiches and one frozen. I try to feed my 2 year old as clean as I can so I like making bread for him
I have a manual butter Churn I got from Lehman’s many years ago. It’s fun to use. Now just need the cow.
Having a dairy cow has been such a blessing for our family. (I never thought I would be doing this)
Thank you. My first round of homemade butter ended up all over the kitchen counter. What a mess. Thanks for taking time to show everyone how to do this and freeze it down.
Hi Amanda, thank you for this video. You explain things like they really are. I have never made butter but I’m going to try. I already make your bread recipe. My grandchildren love it! I’m not a homesteader, I’m just trying to save money and feed my family more nutritious food. Thank you again! 🌺
You have the Bosch mixer. Been on the verge of pulling the trigger and buying one. You mentioned it's good for dough. That's why I want one. So tired of my "KitchenAid dough climb" no matter what upgraded dough hooks I buy.
Glad to see you demoing it with butter.
Sold! 🙌
One of my goals this year is to make my own butter, at least once 😊 I do purchase mine from a regional meat *mostly (but a collection of local/regional farmers provide the meat .. has expanded over the years to some regional farmers/crafters etc.. I love them ❤ Walden’s in MA if you care to mosey them.. really cool collective of organic, sustainable etc.. farmers😊) but they have the best butter! (I dont use it for baking 😮💰) So im saving this for my garden goals video file ❤❤
I really like to add a buttermilk culture to the cream before churning. I leave it to culture overnight and then churn. It breaks faster and has a really wonderful flavor...it's actually very sweet rather than sour this way.
Thank you Jess for this tutorial! I tried to make butter the other day and it didn't work. I buy fresh milk from a farmer but then I boil it (I make yoghurt with it). After boiling it I put it in the refrigerator overnight before making the yoghurt. The amount of cream that comes to the top is significantly more than if I remove the cream before boiling. However, as my butter failed, is boiling it first what caused this failure? Thank you for all your videos and for sharing the love of what you do with us. You are so inspiring!! Love and peace. Cheryl
I remember making butter with my mom in grandmas old churner. It was one of my favorite childhood memories. I love your new channel! We really need to get back to a simpler way of life, even if it's less convenient.
My Girl Scout troop made butter and then I did it with my kids when they were young they loved it
Have you opened your store yet? We are from TN and was actually around that area last year when my kids went to meet Bobby Goodsen from Swamp Loggers. I wanted to stop by but I knew you hadn't opened yet. I'd love to visit when you are up and running. Thanks, I appreciate your videos. I always feel like I am in the kitchen or garden with a friend when I watch your videos. Blessings, Donna
I just love the way you present your videos I have watched all of them.
I appreciate that!
I have no reason to make butter right now, but I love hanging out with you anyway!
I plant more strategically in the centers of the beds. Im short.. just 5”1’.. so if Im not using good body mechanics (Im an RN.. I know how to protect my back ❤) I definetly feel it. I have a good kneeler .. invaluable when I use it! Most of the time I make my gardening a yoga session of sorts and get in to different poses as I work m y way thru what Im doing.. not so much for the yoga .. seriously.. but being mindful of posture is important!
Jess , I made my own farmhouse quiche following your instructions. It came out great and I am very proud of myself . Thank you.
You have the greatest smile. Makes me want to have what you are having. Happy New Year!
Great teaching video Jess. Someday I would like to try to making butter. Unfortunately we city folk have chlorinated water and added fluoride among all the other stuff they can’t filter out and don’t disclose (pharmaceuticals) All I could do is envy you for having well water. Sure it can have issues from run off, minerals etc but you know more about your water than most people. If I think of it those things I mentioned have to be in store bought butter because a manufacturer isn’t going to go out of their way to find a filtering solution - city water is potable which is up to their standards. If you look at the local grocery store product from large producers are adding thickeners/emulsifiers/stabilizers etc. to their heavy cream. More stuff we don’t need to consume. We’ve got to support our local farmers/small dairies who don’t add the junk to extend the shelf life or thicken/emulsify their products.
Making our batch for the week!
Jess: "shake it, stir it, mix it, blend it, chirn it..."
Me: "Pull it! Twist it! Bop it!"
Thank you for sharing!
I love how you give all the options information!
I normally watch your videos on TV, but I can't comment that way! Had to be sure to watch again here, so I could say Thank you! Your awesome!
All the info you include matters! Great video!🏆❣️
This is so good! I live near tons of dairy farms, some of the best ice cream in the country! I will be doing this as a treat!
Hi that is so interesting and educational you could freeze your butter paddle before you have to use it
I often watch pro home cooks and he made butter in a food processor which I have been meaning to try because I thought that was cool. Also, recently a l9cal business farm was purchased by a new local dairy farm that sells raw milk as well as other products I'm interested in. I'm totally planning to enjoy the many homemade products I can
It's not often I'm the first to see any video on TH-cam, but I'm glad this is the one that popped up!!! Much love from lowcountry
Summerville, SC
ps butter is my favorite thing for cooking and I really have been wanting to make my own butter lately... perfect timing Jess!
Now I wasn’t to make some butter just for the fun of it. You make it look so easy :)!! I have a Bosch mixer for making bread, so cool to know of another use for it. Thx for the inspiration.
Woohoo! What a great tutorial. Thanks for breaking it all down .
Glad it was helpful!
You made Crème Fraîche! Whipping cream!
I use a little juice of a carrot will bring the butter to a BEAUTIFUL color ❤❤❤🕊️
I’m gonna start doing this, lol.
I want a milk cow and if I practice ahead of time, I’ll be ready.
This was a very enjoyable video and I appreciate you for sharing this topic.
I use my Ninja to make small batches of butter. Usually for special occasions
OMG I just love listening to you Jess! Love both of your channels.
I just found your channels and I am so happy to have found you. I really enjoyed learning this process from you. Well done 😊
This was great and you are so knowledgeable about the whole
process. Fun to watch the whole thing beginning to end!
You make everything look so simple. Thanks for doing this. I have wanted to try this. Will have to buy the heavy cream because I don’t have a cow 😀
Ok, but can we talk about your sweater?😍
Oh thanks 😍 I got it for my bday!
Glad I'm not the only one looking at it and wanting that sweater! Hahaha.
I can't wait to make this. I was wanting to try to make homemade butter. Thank you for this video!
I really enjoyed this. Your new channel is an absolute win for me. Thanks so much for your content.
Really enjoyed watching this video
I always learn something new when watching your videos. ❤ Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge with us!
Glad to realize you have this new channel! Can you please do some lamb recipes?
aw good morning sweety I can wish to have own milk cow but if you know a dairy farmer is always a good thing
Love butter but it has to be super well rinsed as I can not stand buttermilk unless it is in baked goods. We used to make both and used it the same. Good job!
i used to be in charge of churning the butter at 8 yr old
my granny always just sit a gallon or 2 of milk out early in the morning and let it clabber to where the clear was on bottom then pour them in the churn where was my job to churn that dasher up and down till the butter was made
When we were kids, my Dad would put a bit of heavy cream in quart jars and have each of us kids shake the jars until the cream turned into butter while watching TV.
Thanks for keeping it 100
I love this! I can’t wait for the next instructional ❤
Have you ever tried the hand method? Apparently dairy maids making fresh butter daily for the table would just mix some of the cream from that day and gently stir with their fingers and it comes together in a minute or two. I assume there’s something with body heat encouraging separation. It would be tedious for gallons of it, but a pint to quart of it would be way less work than whipping, maybe even electric whipping when you consider cleanup.
Watch this th-cam.com/video/aZyaIQa00eU/w-d-xo.html
How do you turn raw milk into heavy cream? Please and thanks!
My daughter and I are spending some mornings on a small family dairy farm. I need the manure, she loves the cows, and he enjoys our company... win, win, win.
Loving the bread recipe, and my 3 year old even eats the crust! Biscuits are next.
Thank you!
You're an amazing wealth of knowledge, love your channel ❤
And store bought butter has natural flavorings added to it😢 and yes they put it in the Irish butter. You even have to read the ingredients in your butter. The simplest butter the better.😊
I love your videos! Such a breath of fresh air!
I live in Indiana.When I was a kid our drive from our town of 200 to the big city of 11,000...lol..was 10 miles..the ride to town was lots fields with cows.They have all but disappeared.Its pretty sad to see how it's changed.We always just had a couple cows in pasture and in fall dad moved over to the combined field part of time...We named them tbone and milkdud every year..I have yet as an adult eaten steak like the platter mom threw on the table for something as common as a Tuesday lunch..We didn't know how good we had it..
Growing up my favorite thing to do was grab that milk when it came in from the barn and it was my job to make the butter.
Thanks, need to do this today
Thank you Jess! I was just thinking the other day that I wanted to watch a 'how to make butter' video. 😃
