I"m craving melted butter

European butter is sweet and has a higher fat content due to the sweet
whipping cream added.

Almost anything at all except cardboard with some crushed garlic, some chili flakes, perhaps pepper, a simmering of, oh, sauvignon blanc... well, that is my adult self talking.

When I was a kid, my mother used to serve boiled potatoes steaming hot, and we'd add bits of ice cold butter....

I also used to eat Saltines with butter. Now you know I'm going to hell.

Really good biscuits, layered kind made by folding rolled cold dough and cold butter many times, and baking. Adding a tad of honey as you grab one of the hot ones just out of the oven.

A seriously good buttery croissant. These are harder to find than assumed. Used to be a place called The Buttery in Ocean Park..

I remember our first damned day in Rome, walking stricken, lurching even, with 35 or 42 hour awakeness to a local pizzeria. I can't remember what we ordered, it wasn't pizza since I didn't try that until some bowling alley outside of Firenze. But... what I remember is the couple next to us at the line up of tables.
They got some nice sized bowls, probably warm already, and an extremely hot, apparently, large bowl of spaghetti, and a bowl of butter, which they attacked repeatedly with big spoons, and then a fair sized bowl of parmigiano. They were lightening fast with the butter and cheese application and pasta toss.

Given that we were both near asleep that was a mesmerizing vision.





And, they weren't chubby.

Hmmm, my italian grocer slipped me some Irish butter to take home once... really really good. I've tried the irish butter from Costco a while back and then again recently, and... eh!

I suppose the primo butter is farm fresh that hasn't undergone modern hygienic procedures.

Ghee! i just like the name

Ghee is a clarified butter without any solid milk particles or water. Ghee is used in India and throughout the South Asia in daily cooking. A good quality ghee adds a great aroma, flavor and taste to the food.

Ghee can be great assets for people who are on low fat diet since even a lower quantity of ghee can add lot of flavor to the food than any other oil or fat products. According to the ancient Ayurveda, a moderate amount of ghee is the best cooking oil

Ghee can be generally found in the Ethnic section of any big grocery store or on any Indian/South Asian store. If you can not find ghee easily, we have given an easy way to make ghee below. When buying Ghee, be sure to buy Ghee from animal such as cow. Do not buy an artificial ghee made by hydrogenating vegetable oil.

Au contraire, osso. Your habit of eating saltines covered with butter has carved you a path to heaven.

Sometimes I will grab about twenty or thirty saltine crackers, cover them in butter, then place a small slice of cheddar cheese on each one.

Then I will sit down and slowly eat them, savoring each one as I go. Sometimes I will make little pleasurable grunting sounds.

I grew up on saltines with butter, osso.

I've seen European butter at Whole Foods. I'll try some.


The only reason I'm able to have this discussion is that I'm currently out of butter. Probably the only time in my adult life that I don't have any butter in the house.

I still say fried baby feet are the way to go.

You forgot to "lol."

lol

I haven't had saltines with butter in ages!

roflmao

You forgot to drool and **** yourself, Captain Intelligence.

Would that be Cabot cheddar, by any chance, gus?

Heaven on a cracker!

Hmmmm.

Dagnabit - now I'm going to have to have more cheese.

Does it have a higher smoking point because it's clarified?

Hmmm...I see we have a relationship made in heaven here.

I got $50 on the Doo Hoo.....

Kuk. Kak. Ack!

I got $100 on the doo
