Chatty Cathy wrote: http://www.recfoodcooking.com/ Vote now! Butter was really cheap around Easter, I've got six pounds or so in the freezer. So it's butter exclusively. Tastes better, and as opposed to margarine you have to use less to get a good flavor... -- Best Greg |

Hands down! Butter. A recent TV commercial has some gal talking up fried foods?... "...fried bacon, fried butta." LOL! I never actually watched it so I forget what it's selling. Andy Knows fried bacon! |

Jill I bought a box of salted butter by mistake and it does taste great on popovers and pancakes, etc. I wouldn't make grilled cheese with salted butter. There's enough salt in the cheese. Unsalted for mashed potatoes also. The added salt to finish does the trick. Andy |

Serene I agree. *I like salted on my steamed veggies, but unsalted for baking or cooking. *We usually just buy the unsalted because you can always add salt. I also prefer salt on the surface, like with pretzels... just has a nicer effect when salt is sprinkled on scrambled eggs after they're cooked than to stir the salt into the raw eggs, I find less salt by about half has a better affect. I much rather sprinkle salt on my buttered bread than to use salted butter... whenever possible I'd rather use salt as a condiment rather than as an ingredient. Now where did I put that tequilla...

There's research suggesting the taste difference between expensive sea salt and normal salt is only detectable if there are crystals of salt on the surface of the food. Otherwise, you're wasting your money. Steve |
