Unsalted Butter

Unsalted Butter

EverydayUnsalted

Unsalted butter is a pure dairy fat product made solely from churned cream without added salt, offering precise control over sodium content in recipes. With approximately 80% milkfat, it provides a rich, creamy base for baking and sautéing while allowing chefs to adjust seasoning independently. Its shorter shelf life compared to salted butter and dairy-based composition make it unsuitable for vegan diets, though it contains minimal lactose due to its high fat content.
