How to Churn Out Homemade Butter

Homemade butter is one of the easiest pantry staples you can make at home. All you need are two ingredients: heavy cream and salt- that's it. You can make butter in a jar, blender, or with an electric mixer (no old fashioned butter churn needed). The idea is you'll want to beat the heavy cream until it become very thick.  You will see the fat separate from the water (otherwise known as buttermilk).  You'll want to use the best heavy cream that you can possibly find, the better the cream the better the butter.  Use your homemade butter in your baking, mixed with herbs to make a compound butter, or plain on a piece of toast.
