It has been languishing in the back of a cool,dark cupboard all this time. I recently came across various blog posts that said that canning butter isn't the best idea. (Mostly saying that butter is a low acid food and should be pressure canned) So---I opened up a few of my butters as I had some baking to do anyway. Well, the first one was fine, the second one had a dark grey mold on it, and the third one smelled like a baby's diaper. (Sorry, but it's the best description.) What I am going to do is check the rest of them, there are about 14, and keep the good ones in the fridge for now.<br /><br />Crystal over at everydayfoodstorage.net has a great blog entry about canning butter, "My opinion on Powdered Butter and Home Canned Butter" and I think in the event of an emergency, I will use her suggestions and substitutions. <br />From now on, my butter will stay in the freezer. <br /><br />In the interest of fairness, I will say that many persons out in blog land that I have great respect for have canned butter with no problem. This is why I tried it. However, I have come to the conclusion that it is too risky for me.Mary Lou in Central NYnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962104462007438395.post-90833893872570304872009-02-18T19:29:00.000-07:002009-02-18T19:29:00.000-07:00I've heard of doing this but never dared try it. m...I've heard of doing this but never dared try it. maybe i will now...Adriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04199796862858832809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962104462007438395.post-52701691638873278052009-02-16T19:42:00.000-07:002009-02-16T19:42:00.000-07:00Canning Butter?

It tastes pretty much the same, but I don't care for the texture at all.Janelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10449455434527590302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962104462007438395.post-29470103977459611522009-02-16T15:13:00.000-07:002009-02-16T15:13:00.000-07:00I'm curious if you can freeze the butter, why can ...I'm curious if you can freeze the butter, why can it? Just curious. Before you pour could you whip it to get more of a creamer base?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
