Keep your butter fresh and spreadable with this handmade Butter Crock (also known as a French Butter Keeper or Butter Bell) Perfect for all bakers, pancake enthusiasts, and bread lovers.
Measures 4” tall and 3.75” in diameter. The bell portion holds one stick of softened butter.
How to Use: -Set a stick of butter out to get to room temperature until soft. -Press the softened butter firmly into the bell portion of the lid. It should be soft enough to press into the butter bell lid without air pockets -Smooth the surface so it sits flush with the rim. -Pour cold water into the base of the crock ¼” - ½” deep -Place the lid on the crock, the water forms a seal that keeps air away from the butter to keep it fresh. -When you're ready to enjoy your fresh, spreadable butter you can easily take the lid off, flip it over, and set it flat side down on the table for serving. -Butter stays soft and fresh for about 2–4 weeks (depending on room temperature). -Change the water every 2–3 days to keep it fresh. -Store it on the countertop, away from direct heat or sunlight. -Wash crock between sticks to prevent buildup. Butter crock is dishwasher safe. All pottery is microwave, dishwasher and oven safe up to 400 degrees fahrenheit. Glazes + clay are non-toxic and lead and cadmium free. Handmade pottery by our friend Bree in Iowa!
