We don’t store butter in a jar just because we want to keep it fresh for a long time. Thanks to this trick the butter is soft and ready to be spread immediately. This solves one of the common problems you face in the morning. You take the butter out of the fridge, but it’s very hard. Ten minutes before breakfast you don’t have to think about taking it out. In a moment you’ll learn how to soften it easily and simply.
All you need is an ordinary glass and water
What do you need? Any glass large enough for the butter to fit in. Then just fill the glass with water. It’s important that it’s warm or hot water. You can fill it directly from the tap or use the hot water left in the kettle after making coffee or tea.
How to do it?
First, take the glass and pour warm water into it. Leave it in the glass for a few dozen seconds so it heats up thoroughly. Meanwhile you can take the butter out of the fridge. After removing it from the packaging place it on a plate. At this point take the glass and pour the water out into the sink.
The moment has arrived. Take the glass and place the butter inside it. Let it sit like this for about a minute. Then lift the glass, take a table knife and cut. You’ll see how perfectly soft the butter will be and how easily you can cut off a piece.
How is that actually possible?
It’s simple. By placing the warm glass over the butter you significantly increase the temperature inside the glass. The heat doesn’t escape and begins to affect the butter, which as a result starts to soften very well and quickly. This trick can come in handy whenever you want to enjoy baked goods with your favorite butter and don’t want to think about softening it, or don’t want to engage in a fight. Once you try it, your mornings will be much easier.
