How to make White butter:

Many people would say take 2 litre milk, 3 litre etc. I would simply say that use the quantity of cow’s milk or buffalo's milk fresh milk, you take daily for your household, simply boil it and let it cool and put it into the refrigerator and chill it properly, you will see a thick layer of cream over it after 3 to 4 hours. Separate the cream and put it into an airtight container and freeze it. Repeat this process daily for fourteen days or more. Unless you get the quantity of cream according to your desire. The quantity of cream will also depend on the quantity and quality of milk. The more the milk, the more cream you can get out of it. The less milk, the less quantity you will get. If you are using cow’s milk it may give you less cream as it is thin in consistency as compared with buffalo’s milk. Buffalo’s milk can give you more cream if it is pure. And is also thick in consistency. 

So coming back towards the process of WHITE BUTTER. After gathering the cream for a month, 15 days or a week. When you get your desired quantity take it out of the freezer for making WHITE BUTTER from it. Leave it for 10 to 15 mins or maximum half hour at room temperature and after that pour the cream into a blending jug or you can also use a hand blender machine. Both would give you awesome results.Or you can also use a manual wooden blender or a beater but it would take a lot of time and energy. In case of using a blender jug just pour the cream in it and cover it carefully and turn on the machine.

You can also add some ice cubes in it, it will help the butter fats rise quickly. Repeat this process two to three times and the butter will rise to the upper surface. And if you are using a hand blender machine, then pour the cream in any bowl, and blend it with a hand blender but be careful because it may split here and there.

 Blend it properly for 5 to 7 mins and you will notice the butter coming on the surface. The milk will then be separated. Remove the butter with the help of your hands or any strainer. But it is better to use your hands.

 Take a bowl of chilled water and put the butter in it and wash it. Repeat the process 2,3 times until the water remains clear. It is an indication that the butter is purified now. If not washed properly it may feel bitter in taste.

Your Homemade white butter is just ready.
