What is Butter Powder
Butter powder is dehydrated butter that is also shelf stable and easily stored in the cupboard or pantry without the need for refrigeration. It can be used in a variety of ways, including baked goods, seasoning blends, marinades, and sauces. This option is also more budget-friendly for many families.
Luckily, butter powder is available online so that you can order and have it in 24-28 hours. Stored properly, you will be able to add a spoonful or two to enhance your favorite seasoning blends to make a butter rub.
