If you have been looking for a butter keeper of your own, but were unable to find one under $20+, check out this one on Amazon: Norpro Stoneware Butter Keeper
FirstBorn had been bugging me to make more English muffins, since they’re so much tastier than store-bought, so I broke down and made a dozen this morning. You know, in my down time… The egg-shaped object in the background is my butter keeper, so I never have to deal with ripping through toast with hard butter.
Where did you get your butter dish? Is it the french style that inverts into water? I read about them but haven’t been able to find one.
I looked all over and found one at a Tuesday Morning place. Other sites have them for $20+, which is nuts to me. It works PERFECTLY. I change the water ever day or two and have easy to spread butter! I’ll edit the post with a link to the one on Amazon I found which is the closest in price and size to mine (it holds slightly more than one stick of butter).
