Buttery Goodness
Ok, this one might really surprise you. Have you ever had butter that has been in the fridge for any period of time? How difficult is it to spread that butter? It seems to defeat the purpose of butter altogether when you consider what putting it in the fridge does to it.
This is why you should always keep your butter covered – in a cool area, out of the sun. Since butter is pasteurized and salted – it does not go bad. If you live in a cooler place, this works nicely for you, but not so great in the South. Another plus of living up North? We think so.
