Dairy Spread....
Made some up some Dairy spread this morning.... It's easy to make & we know what goes into it...
I use a Ratio of 2:1 Butter & Rice Bran Oil... It works out heaps cheaper than buying the "spreadable" butters & is a lot better to cook with as you get the butter flavour but it doesn't burn like normal butter due to the oil content... Taste great on sandwiches & toast as well....
Method : Just add the softened Butter to a mixing bowl & beat or whisk with Electric Beaters/Stand Mixer... When the butter is all smooth & creamy add the Rice Bran Oil a bit at a time.... I keep Whisking it until it becomes pale & increases in volume.... I store it in decor 500ml containers & freeze until needed....
Costing :
1Kg butter $4.58
500ml R/Bran oil $1.63 (4L for $13 at Woolies on sale & I have a small stockpile..)
This works out to be $0.42 per 100g or $2.10 for a 500g tub....
The closest everyday cheapest equivalent is Aldi at $2.99 for 500g....
We don't like the Aldi brand due to it having Canola oil in it & that it spits everywhere when using it in cooking due to the water content.... Have been making this version of Dairy spread for a few years now after modifying a Recipe we found on the Simple Savings Site....
Have lifted this from a post on our garden blog, Bits Out the Back.....
Have a great one all....
