How to Make Homemade Butter

• Bring milk to a boil, cool and refrigerate for 5-6 hours.
• A thick layer of cream will form. Remove carefully with perforated spoon.
• Store in a container with a lid. Refrigerate. Add more to it from the next lot of milk.
• Collect until you have at least 2 cups.
• Now add curd, mix lightly, and cover. Keep in a dark warm place for 6-7 hours
• Beat set cream till the butter separates from liquid
• Add 3 cups chilled water and collect butter into a lump
• Pour out the buttermilk.
• Use this buttermilk to make kadhi or knead dough for any roti.
• If you want to use the butter to make ghee, do not wash any further.
• But if you plan on making flavoured or salted butter, then wash 2-3 times more with chilled water.
• Drain out all water, and use as desired.
