The best butter? The one you make
Over the years I have been reading CH, I am amazed by the things people make from scratch. The one thing that doesn't show up much is butter. People make their own bread, pasta, sausages but I seldom see mention of making butter. I do it all the time. Guests are amazed when I bring out buttermilk biscuits I've made from my own buttermilk and butter that I made that afternoon. So in the interest of showing how easy it is, I wanted to post this simple set of instructions.
Get a quart of the best quality heavy cream you can find and let it get to room temperature.
I have a kitchenaid stand mixer but you could use a hand mixer. Pour in the cream and use the whipping attachment. Wrap plastic wrap between the bowl and the mixer arm if you are using a stand mixer otherwise get sponges and paper towels ready to clean up.
Turn mixer to medium high speed and go away for 15 minutes or so. When you check it, it should be getting to the point of thick whipped cream. Watch carefully from this point as soon the whipped cream will begin to form into butter nodules and the buttermilk will begin to separate. The butter will stick to the mixer attachment.
I pour the whole thing through a fine mesh strainer and keep the buttermilk in an open container. Take the butter and knead it to bring out more of the buttermilk. Add salt at this point if you want. Once you have pressed out most of the liquid, I pack the butter into a plastic tub. A quart of cream will give you a pound of butter and a pint of buttermilk. Leave the buttermilk out overnight to culture and then use for the best biscuits or pancakes you can make.
I have added pictures of the various steps
Wonderful 'tutorial' for making 2 things I love... butter & buttermilk! Since I'm a do things from scratch sort of girl, I'll be giving it a try. Thanks!
Did this one time when niece (maybe 9-10 at the time) was over... she was mesmerized!! Think maybe people don't make their own more often is the "shelf-life"?? Butter from supermarket, store brand or name brand, has preservatives. Homemade will go bad much quicker. But MAN is it good!
re: pegasis0066
Missed that. Thanks for the link.
I have made butter - it's easy, fun, and can be impressive. However a pint of heavy cream is around $1.99, and only yields around a cup of butter. I can get a whole pound of butter for $2.50. The Land'O'Lakes ingredient list reads: Sweet cream, salt. Nothing scary in there. Also in my area you can only get ultra-pasteurized cream, which works, but doesn't have the same good flavor that a higher quality, less processed cream would give. I would never discourage anyone from making it, but they probably don't due to cost and availability of ingredients.
re: NonnieMuss
In my area, a pound of Land o'Lakes runs about $5. I can get a quart of organic heavy cream for not much more. I get a pound of butter and a pint of buttermilk. If you taste the buttermilk, you will understand why its called that. Tastes totally different that the emulsified/cultured stuff you buy. The only thing in it is buttermilk. No glycerides or carrageen.
So for my area, the cost is actually cheaper to make it yourself especially when you compare it to imported varieties and use the buttermilk as I do.
re: Bkeats
I've been grumbling forever about the milk laws in my state. I'm curious about using the organics though - since organics are generally pasteurized to death. I guess I'll just enjoy my low butter prices and making it for fun from time to time.
re: Bkeats
Organic heavy cream has been blasted with so much heat it hardly resembles farm cream anymore. We can get cream here that is not ultra-pasteruized but the cost of that to make butter is not viable.
We are also lucky that Kate's Butter now sells the buttermilk that they get from the butter-making process, which is, as you say, a totally different product than the stuff made from skim milk with cultures.
re: NonnieMuss
I love making butter - and I add a lot of salt, it is almost as good as beurre sale from Brittany. Such a pleasure.
I've been spending a lot of time in Idaho - they have raw milk everywhere (it is a little strange how easy it is to come by) - I'm not willing to go "raw", but low-temp pasteurized milk is oddly hard to find in the same markets.
You're right though, pasteurized (not ultra) and non-homoginized makes the best butter (and cheese if you're making ricotta).
re: thimes
Yep - I'm in KY, where raw milk sales for human consumption is illegal. So of course I'm really into making cheese and am having a doozy of a time trying to get my hands on milk, especially goat. UP cream will make a nice butter, but UP goat's milk makes a pot of sour slush. I can't justify a herd share, my own goat, or any of the solutions other than begging traveling friends to pick me up some milk if they happen to drive through better states.
When my dad was growing up in North Dakota in the 20's and 30's, making butter was a chore left to the smaller children in the family. Done of course with a hand cranked churn. The look that he and his siblings would get on their faces even late in their lives if anyone mentioned buttermaking to them!
re: JoeBabbitt
That's hilarious! When I was in college, I learned how to make whipped cream.....I made the same "mistake" of letting it go to long. I had no idea that butter was the final product in the process. GF and I were staring at it, tasting it, trying to figure out what the hell it was!
Maybe I'm slightly unimaginative, but you've blown my mind with your plastic wrap shield on the KA.
I remember once when I was probably 7 or 8 years old, my mom handed me a container of heavy cream and told me if I shook it long enough, it would turn to butter. I was a rambunctious child, and unbeknownst to me, she was just trying to get me to shut up and sit still for a while.
Over an hour later, I had "butter" and needed a nap.
re: nothingswrong
Thank you for the peace and quiet I'm now enjoying after handing my 7 year old a small carton of heavy cream. She's just stubborn enough to keep at it for a good while.
re: kahless
Try pouring it into a glass jar so she can watch it happen. It's pretty neat.
We used to have our own cows we milked on a small farm, so cream was in abundance (and good cream it was, too). I used to put pure fresh cream in a quart jar and have the kids sit on the floor and roll it back and forth as a "game". They had fun and I eventually had butter! But then again, I also made my own cheese! Boy, those were the days.
I do it in a food processor.
I prefer to use cream that is a bit past the expiration date because the sour tang offsets the natural sweetness in butter.
appreciate this. have a butter churner that is a giant heavy glass jar with an attached churner/whipper thingie. I'll get some heavy cream-what the hay ?)

More than half a century ago, Marg Wall sat down and wrote a list of rules that people had to follow if they wanted to skate at her roller rink, now called Roller Dome North, which she and her husband had built in 1950 in a cornfield at what is now Coliseum Boulevard and Lima Road.
The rules covered dress code and a code of conduct. They were designed to make the roller rink a clean and safe environment, and if you broke the rules you would incur Wall's wrath.
That same basic set of rules, with only a few changes, are still in use at the two Roller Domes in Fort Wayne, and they have been adopted at other roller rinks all over the country.
The rules have worked well.
We don't have a lot of problems, Wall said. They know the mean old lady is still there.
The Roller Dome North is a landmark. Practically anyone who has lived in Fort Wayne has skated there at least once. Somehow, though, one loses sight of the fact that the roller rink is now 62 years old, making it one of the oldest continuously operating businesses in the city.
And people might not realize that the mean old lady, Wall, has been there the whole time. She turns 90 next week, but she still runs the place, often showing up seven days a week.
To mark the milestone – her 90th birthday, not the mere 62 years she has worked there – her family has planned a celebration for invited guests on Friday. On Saturday, they'll have a free skate, open to the public from 7:30 to 11 p.m. at the Roller Dome North, so people who have skated there during the past six decades can relive some of their memories.
Lots of people must have memories. Lots of people talk about how they met their spouses at the roller rink.
Others remember how tight a ship Wall ran. It wasn't uncommon, says her son, Kim Wall, for her to tell a girl to button up her blouse or for her husband to tell a kid in a muscle shirt that he had to get another shirt. It was supposed to be a family atmosphere.
The rink at one point forbade guys with long hair, and there were no exceptions. One of Wall's own sons – the one who organized the birthday celebration, by the way – wasn't allowed into the roller rink because he had long hair.
The long-hair policy got the Roller Dome sued twice, but it won both times.
Wall never put up with any guff from employees, either. She'd ask, do you want a job or do you want to work? Millions of people want a job, but not that many want to work, Kim Wall said.
Perhaps the most significant accomplishment is that the business has thrived all these years, weathering changing trends and waxing and waning traffic.
The business seems to run in seven-year cycles, Wall said. Skating is popular mostly among younger people, and when one group ages out, he said, you've got to start over and rebuild a new clientele.
The Walls were innovative in an attempt to bring in more skaters. They introduced the all-day skate, where parents could drop off kids at 9 and they'd skate until 5. They were baby sitters, Kim Wall says.
The free skate planned for Saturday is another first. But don't expect it to be repeated for a long, long time.

SAMMY Nominees
SAMMY awards recognize employees who consistently demonstrate excellence at SAMC. The SAMMY serves as our employee recognition program and is held annually at the Dothan Civic Center. The winter 2013 nominations for the award were announced in January.
Natalie Leighty, Radiation Oncology
Natalie is a compassionate nurse who after accepting the new position of research nurse at Southeast Cancer Center, was diagnosed with breast cancer.
As a patient and nurse, she made it her mission to make sure every patient she worked with knew that someone shared their plight. She shared her story, becoming the inspiration many cancer patients need. After undergoing chemotherapy, Natalie started giving Hallmark cards to all those who needed a pick-me-up. She spoke directly to one patient who wanted to discontinue treatment, convincing her to change her mind.
Because of her own personal struggles, Natalie is a powerful voice for SAMC's cancer care program.
Cheryl Holland, Anesthesia
Cheryl approached her supervisor one day thinking she was in trouble. She confessed that she had given money to a dialysis patient who had come to surgery to declot a graft. Cheryl was the patient's nurse anesthetist and learned he did not have the money to buy gas to get to the dialysis clinic. Cheryl was worried that her selfless act of caring and compassion would get her in trouble.
Instead, it makes those who work with her very proud. Cheryl has continued to further her education from RN to nurse practitioner to CRNA. She also mentors other CRNA students and is always quick to work holidays so fellow team members can be home with their small children.
Victoria March, Behavioral Health Services
Victoria has significant medical problems yet she is patient and compassionate on the job. As a technician, Victoria sometimes must deal with difficult patients. She always approaches them with kindness and respect.
She is also a positive role model in the community. She is the neighborhood mom who takes care of other children, making sure they have a ride to their after school activities. She opens her home to these children on the weekends and gives them fresh-baked cookies and other treats. She brings canned goods to SAMC and puts it in the lounge for anyone who needs food.
She also supplies helpful items for patients who have no family members.
GAITRite System
New carpet measures movement
The Neuromuscular and Balance Center has a new 16-foot electronic walkway that helps analyze a patient's gait or the movement of limbs when they walk.
The GAITRite System measures timing and distance of footprints to identify abnormal gait patterns that can suggest problems in walking. A normal gait pattern is essential for maintaining independence and preventing falls in older adults.
The Center, located inside Rehab Services, is the first physical therapy facility in the state to acquire this unique system used to compare gait before and after therapy.
"For many patients, it is an awareness," said Victoria Light-Whitehead of GAITRite Systems. "This technology helps us give them an ambulation score that helps us justify treatment and allows the patient to set a goal."
The electronic pathway contains more than 13,000 sensors that capture every footfall in real time on any computer. The system uses software that allows for multiple reports and analyses. The data is valuable in assessing patients with Parkinson's disease, a brain tumor, spinal cord injury and more. When patients undergo therapy to improve balance and walking, it decreases their risk of falls.
For more information on the services offered by the Neuromuscular and Balance Center, call Erin Keefer in Rehab Services at 334-793-8961.

Posted by Unknown on 20th Jan 2011
I received these shoes and just had to write a review to say how much I love them! I am a size 43 and was cautious regarding the size as I thought they would be too small as it says they are a small fit. They were a perfect fit for me, not small at all! So very comfortable and stylish! Everybody complemented me on how beautiful and elegant they looked. I loved the organza tie (although I did have to double bow it because on one foot it kept coming undone). They looked great with my dress, made my feet look dainty and elegant (a bonus with huge feet like mine) and as they are leather they didn't get all dirty as most fabric shoes can, I can wear them again and again!

A little about me...
I am a retired Realtor and ready for some romance! I have a great sense of humor and can carry on a great conversation. I haven't traveled much, but would like to,however, not alone! I prefer good conversation over TV. I enjoy cooking for someone, if I am left to myself I would just eat peanut butter sandwiches! I look and feel much younger than my age.....can't believe my age! I am not crazy about outdoor sports but totally support those that do. I am looking for companionship with a nice caring man who believes in doing his share. I would like for someone who appreciates an attractive, intelligent woman who expects kindness above all. I have no objection to younger or older men! As long as you feel alive and enjoy whatever life brings.
About the one I'm looking for...
Good sense of humor and not moody. Good sense of self and not shy. Frankly, I like a man to be "the man". Someday (when I get older...lol) I think I would enjoy a motor home and get away from winters in Indiana. My sister and her husband have one and love it, think I would to! Just sayin"
I'd just like to add...

About Rick Bobrow, owner
As a retired couple, we spend time on Boards, in volunteer activities and engaged in a variety of outdoor activities. In particular, we love golf, biking, hiking, and travel. And, family activities are very important to us, and we love spending time with 7 young grandchildren.
Rick Bobrow, owner purchased this condo in 2011
Why Rick Bobrow, owner chose Vail Valley
I have owned this unit since 2011. Prior to this, it was owned by the original owner who never leased it to others. This condo is where we spend our time when not at home in Naples, Florida.
What makes this condo unique
This condo is just wonderful for a family vacation, a get together with another couple or friends, etc. It has every amenity imaginable and it is a perfect place for those wanting to be close to the slopes in a wonderful ski area like Beaver Creek.
