Oh for the days when I could eat butter without a guilty thought... As a child in Yorkshire England, salted butter on bread,spread with strawberry jam, now there was a tea time meal! And butter on new jersey potatoes with a little fresh mint sauce!Simple but delicious.
Umm, butter. The sort at the top of the photo is sold here - do you recommend it? I've never bought it, mostly because having it in sticks is so handy.
It is handy, Tara, but this non-traditional butter is really quite wonderful. Here's what we do. Take it out and keep it in a container. We always have butter at room temp so I can bake at the drop of a hat. :<) And of course for toast.
K, have no guilt. I absolve you. :<) Did you boil or bake or roast those jersey potatoes?
The Jersey potatoes were boiled Nan. It's true that potatoes from the island of Jersey really did have a wonderful taste then. I wonder if they still do...
I'll answer your comments as soon as I possibly can. Please do come back if you've asked a question. Also, you may comment on any post, no matter how old, and I will see it.
Eat butter first, and eat it last, and live till a hundred years be past.
What a cute picture on your butter! Love the proverb. Dare I admit how much I love butter. No, better not.
ReplyDeleteAh, yes, sing those praises, Kay!

I always scorn margarine! Butter is, has been, and always will be, one of my favorite food groups.
