Life on a farm like Zuckerman's often included such chores as churning butter. These days, most people get their butter from the market, but on Friday, we made it ourselves. It's actually very easy!First, you need some heavy whipping cream. Pour it into a jar with a tight seal. Then, all you do is shake the jar until much of the contents are solid (we did this in less than half an hour, taking turns). Strain out the extra liquid and you have a soft, creamy, unsalted butter. We ate ours spread onto squares of homemade cornbread. Delicious!
My camera ran out of batteries while we were eating, but there are a few pictures to see on my PhotoSite.
