Butter

[DivideBYZero]

Keep it in the fridge or outside in a dish?

I kept my last pound out of the fridge and it was ok, but toward the end it was looking a bit tired.

I hate how hard it is in the fridge, so..in a dish.

Uh oh.

Fridge -- I only really use butter for cooking, so I take what I need out of the fridge along with other ingredients...by the time ingredients are prepped, butter is at room temp.

 

[JulesMaximus]

I leave it out.

i keep it in the fridge, and when i know i am going to use it and want it soft, i take a pat or two and let them get to room temp. before using them.

Leave only as much as you normally use in a day out, in a sealed container. Keep the rest in the fridge.

 

[JayMassive]

don't they make this in a spray now?

 

[OVerLoRDI]

It is way too hard out of the fridge, so I keep it in a dish.

 

[JDub02]

I keep a stick in a butter dish on the counter.

Most of the time in the fridge. Sometimes I'll just zap it in the microwave for a really short time if I need it soft.
But sometimes I leave it out, and it's never around long enough to go bad.

Wife likes to keep it on the counter... until the dog eats it. He keeps this up, he may be the first yellow lab to die of a heart attack.
