I was reaching for a box of butter in the dairy section at Food Lion when my eye caught a wrapped package called Amish Country Roll Butter. It was one-pound log of butter wrapped in wax paper and not much more in price than a pound of regular butter. What the heck, I’ll give it a try.
All I can say is bring on the “Buttah, buttah, buttah!”
If you believe that “Everything is better with butter and that the more you use, the better it gets,” you should give this a try.
Amish Country Roll Butter is a rich, high-fat butter, traditionally made with fresh cream and hand-packaged into distinctive wax-paper-wrapped logs, giving it a more intact fat structure for a superior, creamy flavor compared to standard American butter. It’s known for its quality from family farms, often higher butterfat (84-85%), and is excellent for spreading on a roll or enhancing a recipe.
Amish Country Roll Butter gets its rich creamy taste using the combination of an old family recipe, farm fresh milk from Wisconsin’s finest cows, and hand packaging every piece of butter. Use it to enhance the taste of your morning bagel or stack of hot pancakes.
Regular butter is standardized at 80% fat, machine-molded into sticks, and may contain preservatives or colorings, making it convenient but less flavorful. The Amish butter uses minimal processing, often hand-rolled into logs with no artificial additives, giving it a purer, more intense flavor perfect for spreading and baking, though it comes without convenient stick measurements
We have been leaving butter on the table and not in the fridge, but since Amish butter has no preservatives, they recommend slicing off a chunk and don’t leave it out for more than a week. That’s not a problem at our house. A chunk every day is more like it.
Once you slather a big wedge of Amish Country Roll Butter on a Sister Schubert’s hot dinner roll out of the oven, you may never go back to regular butter again.
