– Fine salt mixes more evenly into butter and gives a smooth, balanced salty taste.
– Add about ¼ teaspoon of salt per ½ cup of butter for a classic salted butter flavor.
– Let the butter sit at room temperature so the salt blends smoothly without lumps.
– Use a spoon, fork, or mixer to blend the salt evenly throughout the butter.
– Taste the butter and add a little more salt if needed, mixing again.
Keep the salted butter in an airtight container in the fridge to maintain freshness.
