PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
COOKING MEDIUM
Sauté greens, cabbage, or mushrooms in butter; finish proteins with a pat for gloss and flavor.
SALAD DRESSINGS
Whisk melted butter with vinegar-apple-cider, dijon-mustard, and herbs for a warm vinaigrette.
BAKING
Use in keto baking (e.g., almond-flour biscuits) for tender crumb and rich flavor.
COFFEE ENHANCEMENT
Blend into hot coffee (or try coffee-with-butter) for a creamy, high-fat morning option.
