I love love love white butter, it is not only lord krishna's favorite one, but mine too..When i was little i used to gulp lots of them, but now i kind of stay away from them. When we were little, amma used to take the cream, malai which forms on top of the milk when she boils them in a small container, she used to do this regularly and after few days when quite a bit of cream is collected, then she used to churn it using a churner and collect the butter. She makes ghee using that butter.
Now when you keep on whipping it will looks thick and kind of curdled, now add some cold water and beat..
Take your cream |
cut them open |
pour it into a large bowl |
Time to whisk |
Use your beater to whip |
keep whipping |
Now it is getting thick |
This is what you use for frosting cakes, |
it is stiff peak now.. |
you have to keep whipping |
it will slowly start to curdle |
keep whipping |
look it looks kind of curdled |
now i add some cold water |
and keep whipping |
Now the milksolid has separated |
use a spatula to gather them together |
It will be quite easy |
Now you can shape them into a ball |
Now take some cold water in a bowl |
put the butter into cold water and allow them to sit there for 5 mins |
Your homemade fresh butter is done.. |
The water which is separated from the butter is buttermilk |
Take that in a jug |
add a pinch of salt |
and a pinch of asafoetida |
mix well.. |
Butter done.. |
Buttermilk done.. |

Hello, Very useful post. Approximately how many minutes should I whip and on what speed to get the frosting cream using an electric beater. I really need this info because I am struggling to get whipped cream stiff.
Aarthi
@AnonymousIt depends on the cream type..It will take around 5 to 7 mins on high speed

Hi Arthi, do we not need to add curd n make yogurt first n then churn it till the butter is formed? This is how we did in the village back home.
Aarthi
@Binotathis is the easy way
