SALTED BEURRE A LA BARATTE
Origin: Loire-Atlantique, France
This exceptional butter is crafted using time-honoured methods that capture the true essence of fresh cream. Made from warm, pasteurised milk collected directly from local farms, the cream is slowly matured in tanks before being churned in traditional wooden churns. This artisanal process creates butter with an extraordinarily rich, complex flavour and silky texture that's worlds apart from standard butter. Available unsalted or 'croquant' - studded with crunchy Noirmoutier sea salt crystals that provide delightful bursts of salinity.
'A la Baratte' or 'by wooden churns' allows natural cultures to develop, creating deeper, more nuanced flavours. Each batch reflects the terroir of Loire-Atlantique, with subtle seasonal variations depending on the cows' diet.
Serve at room temperature to appreciate its full flavour and spreadable texture. Perfect on warm sourdough, melted over vegetables, or used to finish sauces. The salted version is sublime on radishes or fresh bread.
Please note that as this is a hand-churned fresh butter, we aim to send it to the you with 2-3 weeks shelf life. The butter freezes exeptionally well, so if you intend to use it for longer than this, you can freeze at home and use at a later date.
Producer: Fromagerie de Machecoul - renowned for preserving traditional butter-making techniques in Loire-Atlantique.
