A pat of butter is a small serving of butter, typically weighing about 5 grams, often used as a topping or cooking ingredient. Made from churning cream, butter is rich in saturated fat and contains minor amounts of protein, calcium, and vitamins such as A, D, E, and K. Predominantly used in European cuisine, it enhances flavor and texture in dishes like pastries, sauces, and savory meals. While butter provides essential fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins, its high saturated fat content can contribute to cholesterol levels if consumed excessively. Moderation is key to enjoying its creamy richness without adverse health impacts. Opting for butter sourced from grass-fed cows may offer higher levels of omega-3s and nutrients.
