About Unsalted butter

Unsalted butter is a creamy, rich dairy product made by churning milk or cream to separate the butterfat from the liquid. Unlike salted butter, it contains no added sodium, making it a versatile choice for cooking and baking, allowing precise salt control in recipes. It typically consists of about 80% butterfat, with the remainder being water and milk solids. Unsalted butter is common in European and American cuisines, where it is used in everything from flaky pastries to savory sauces. While it offers a source of fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K, it should be consumed in moderation due to its high saturated fat content, which may impact heart health. Unsalted butter is an essential ingredient for achieving tender textures and enhancing flavors in countless dishes, but balancing its use with healthier fats is key to maintaining a nutritious diet.
