Butter? In Coffee????

It's because of the high water content. Melt margarine and see how it separates. Like nota said, it melts into two different liquids - the margarine and the water.

I love baking with real butter, but I've noticed a difference, even in real butter. My favorite kind is called Challenge. Has a large deer on the front of it, for some reason. Don't really know what a deer has to do with butter. But my local grocer only carries Challenge and Land O'Lakes. Well I've always used Land O'Lakes, until one day they were out, and I grabbed the Challenge. It is so much better, and that's all I use now.

But not in coffee. *shudder* I have to think that it'd make the coffee have a greasy feel to it, like you are drinking coffee out of a dirty cup or something.

If you can find it, Kerrygold makes a pretty good butter. Still needs to be clarified for seafood and whatnot....but darn good butter.

This is just the regular European-style unsalted variety from the grocer.

Try grass fed butter sometime. It really is superior.

You'll have to friend me first- I don't think you ever did that. :lol:

(and I don't do the unsalted for health reasons- to me, it's tastes much better. When I was a little girl, my grandparents had a milk cow, and they taught me how to make butter from fresh milk- the unsalted tastes very similar to my childhood memory)

I know....it was from a stupid insurance commercial, about an old lady who doesn't understand online social media...

Oh yeah- the three old ladies and the wall. I had forgotten that. Hilarious. :lamo
 
Ive tried butter tea before when a Tibetan friend of mine made me a cup in her house- it was very filling, salty and somewhat delicious, perhaps the ones who put butter in their coffee got their idea from the Tibetans, they have drank butter tea ever since their history as a people began.

Will try it if I can find it. I love cooking and baking with a really good butter. A year or two ago, I made my own butter. It was really good, but cost 3 times to make what a pound of Challenge butter costs, and tasted about the same. Challenge just had a smidge more salt to it.
 
Yeah, about that, I did not even notice the butter that much. Also, later I started having too much acid in my stomach.

I tried it with sweet (3 spoons of sugar in a) Turkish cafe. We here could also try Italian cafe, such as: Cappucino, Machiato, or Espresso. But I doubt that it would be any different.
