About Tablespoon butter
Tablespoon Butter is a rich and creamy dairy product made by churning milk or cream until the fat separates. A staple in many cuisines worldwide, it originates from traditional methods of preserving milk fats for baking, cooking, and flavoring. One tablespoon of butter contains approximately 100 calories, 11 grams of fat—including 7 grams of saturated fat—and minimal protein or carbohydrates. It also provides small amounts of vitamin A, an essential nutrient for vision and immunity. While butter enhances the flavor of countless dishes, its high saturated fat content contributes to cholesterol levels, which may be a concern for heart health when consumed excessively. However, in moderation, butter can be part of a balanced diet. Artisan varieties, such as grass-fed butter, may offer slightly higher omega-3 and vitamin K levels. Ideal for spreads, sautés, and baking, butter is a cherished yet calorie-dense ingredient in culinary traditions worldwide.
