Yeah, well by definition, this AIN’T butter … “Use it as butter, by dipping bread in it”? If you dip into it, it’s a dip … or in this case, a flavored oil. But it’s NOT a butter.

Is there suppose to be butter in this recipe ? This sounds more like a bread dip…..am I missing something ?

  There is no butter in this recipe. I believe they want you to use this like butter, you know by dipping this in bread, it is kind of like putting butter on bread and then eating it.

I will be keeping this butter on hand in the freezer.
