About Butter tbsp
Butter (1 tablespoon) is a rich dairy product commonly used in cooking and baking across various cuisines. Originating from the process of churning cream, butter is a staple in European, American, and many other culinary traditions. One tablespoon of butter contains approximately 100 calories, 11 grams of fat (including 7 grams of saturated fat), and trace amounts of carbohydrates and protein. It also provides small amounts of vitamins A and D, which are beneficial for vision and bone health. However, butter is high in saturated fat, which, in excessive amounts, may contribute to cholesterol buildup and heart-related concerns. While it adds a flavorful richness to dishes, moderation is key to incorporating it into a balanced diet. Often viewed as a versatile ingredient, butter is celebrated for its ability to enhance both savory and sweet recipes with a creamy texture and buttery taste.
