Butter is a rich dairy product made by churning cream, separating the fat from the liquid. Originating from ancient cultures worldwide, it remains a staple in many cuisines, from European baking to Indian cooking. Composed primarily of milk fat, butter also contains small amounts of water, protein, and vitamins like A, D, E, and K. It's a source of energy and provides a creamy texture and rich flavor to dishes. While butter is free from trans fats and can be part of a balanced diet, it is high in saturated fats and calories, which should be consumed in moderation to support heart health. Opting for real butter, free from artificial additives, ensures a purer product. Known for its versatility, it enhances both sweet and savory recipes, making it a cherished ingredient despite its occasional controversy in modern nutrition discussions.
