I looked at my butter today, the ingredients are:

  • butter oil
  • milk powder

What the hell is butter oil? I tried googling it, but I get VERY contradictory results, nothing from a reputable source I could find.

    Unsalted butter should be used when cooking specifically because you can control the salt level yourself directly by… Adding salt. It’s easy to add salt, but very difficult to rebalance a dish when something is too salty.

    Salted butter should be used when you’re adding it to something that’s already done, like when buttering toast.
