Cultured Butter

Cultural Context

Cultured butter has its roots in European dairy traditions, where fermentation enhances flavor and preserves the product. It is commonly used in cooking and baking, adding a rich, tangy taste to dishes. This butter is often favored for its complex flavor profile compared to regular butter, making it a staple in gourmet kitchens and among culinary enthusiasts.
