Homemade Butter
The fresh milk rested covered on the table allowing the cream to rise slowly to the top. It was then skimmed off, placed into a stoneware butter churn, where it was churned until soft yellow clumps gathered against the wooden dasher. The butter was scooped, washed, and saved in a bowl. The thin, slightly tangy, leftover liquid was traditional buttermilk grandma used for baking.
