Many years ago, we had a thread about keeping butter out of the refrigerator - at room temperature. Someone (Kenny?) recommended a butter storage churn that used water to keep room air/oxygen from getting to the butter. Supposedly, you could keep your butter on the countertop for at least a week. I *hate* cold butter. It's a pain in the ass to spread, and, doesn't taste as good...at least to me. This week, Mrs. George bought some Amish-made butter at our local grocer. Spread on some Italian or French bread, it's so delicious, it's like a dessert! So, has anyone tried keeping butter out of the fridge? |

Shortstop

On a related note, I always put the plate on the toaster while the bread is toasting. That way the plate is warm/hot helps the butter melt better/faster. |

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |

We've been doing it for years too. We don't make toast too often so we only put in half a stick of butter in there. Once in awhile mold will crop up along the edges of the rim or butter because crumbs have been stuck on there from the butter knife. |

HOLY CARP!!!

We never keep it in the fridge. We don't use anything else. The butter had never turned bad. But we are also using a lot of butter ; a package never lasts more than a few days. |

We never kept it in the fridge when I was growing up. Never a problem. My wife grew up with margarine (in the fridge) and took me years to finally convince her just to use butter only and keep it in the cupboard (where the cats won't lick it). |
