Stylish butter dish that allows people to easily & conveniently enjoy soft butter anytime
What a great idea! It’s a scientific fact that butter does not require refrigeration and approximately 1 in 4 Americans keep their butter on the counter all the time. These folks know that butter at room temperature is not only easier to spread, it tastes better too. Yet surprisingly, ½ of America has no idea that butter kept unrefrigerated is perfectly safe to consume. Butterie’s unique flip-top design keeps your butter protected while keeping your countertops clean. The small, compact shape takes up very little counter space, and yet it holds a wide variety of butter stick sizes. It’s made with a high quality, BPA-free plastic and includes easy-grip handles and a non-slip base.

Boil diced Yukon golds and parsnips to fork tender then drain. Coarsely mash with a bit of cooking liquid, extra-virgin olive oil and salt. What a flavor difference from ordinary mashed! Comments: start boiling the parsnip for 10 min then add potatoes; boil in chicken broth; add 4 garlic cloves to the boil water; sub turnips for parsnips; instead of cook water and olive oil, use butter and cream (decadent).
