There are several reasons why making homemade butter is the right choice:

1. Freshness: Homemade butter is made from fresh cream, which means it has a fresher taste than store-bought butter.

2. Control: When making homemade butter, you have full control over the quality of the ingredients used. You can choose to use organic cream or milk from cows that are grass-fed.

3. Healthier: Homemade butter contains no preservatives or additives, making it a healthier option than store-bought butter.

4. Sustainability: Making homemade butter is a sustainable practice since it reduces packaging waste and transportation emissions.

5. Fun and easy: Making homemade butter is a fun and easy DIY project that can be done with minimal equipment and time. It's a great way to involve kids and teach them about where their food comes from.

AND It’s cheaper!

Here is the recipe:

Whip heavy whipping cream until it turns into whipped cream, then keep whipping until it turns into butter. It’s that simple. The liquid that’s left over is buttermilk, so you no longer need to buy that either!
