Instructions

Step 1

Pour the heavy cream in a bowl of stand mixer and start by whipping the cream at medium speed.

Step 2

When the cream begins to thicken, accelerate the speed to medium-high.

Step 3

When it becomes rough. The cream will eventually seperate after 5 minutes, and when the butter and buttermilk are completely seperated save the liquid (buttermilk) and place the butter in a mesh seive.

Step 4

Squeeze the butter tightly with your hands to remove the excess buttermilk, then place the butter in a bowl filled with ice-cold water to further drain it from buttermilk residue.

Step 5

Repeat the process until the water is clear.

Step 6

If you want salted butter, then you can add a pinch of salt before placing it in an air-tight container and storing it in the fridge.
