BUTTER!!!!

5/6/2017

1 Comment

 
Due to circumstances beyond our control (nation wide shortage of butter), we are now learning a new skill (making our own from scratch). Our choices were to live without butter, or go with the flow....And we can't live without butter.  

Barb has been making her own butter for years and is a pro.  So she got a few of us together one evening to show us how its done.  On a side note, she also showed us how to get half and half (something I've been missing in my life) and buttermilk out of this process.  Thanks, Barb!

Positive notes:
  • I got to learn from Barb, one of the first missionary nurses here at Tenwek.
  • We used a good ol' food processor instead of the Little House on the Prairie churns.
  • I had lots of help in the kitchen.
  • We can now make butter from the milk we boil everyday for drinking and cooking.
