Do people here not always have an open pack of butter in their fridge?
- vidarh 1y agoFor my part: Only around christmas-time, as it's the only time I bake.
- antonyh 1y agoWe have salted butter for the table, and unsalted for baking. We don't bake often enough to want unopened packs if we can avoid it.
- account42 1y agoPre-salted butter is another weird American thing that's completely unnecessary. Butter is also great for cooking and you can keep it for months in the fridge without issues.
- rkomorn 1y agoSalted butter is a weird American thing? It's much easier finding unsalted butter in the US than in Portugal. In fact, unsalted butter has been the default everywhere I've lived in the US. Edit: not to mention, say, salted butter being a point of pride for Britany.
- detaro 1y agoIt's not really an American thing. It's a pretty wild mix which regions use which how much all across the world (well, across places that commonly use butter obviously)
- antonyh 1y agoIt's about 50/50 here in the UK. Not at all weird, it's butter for different purposes.
